Create striking Georgia O’Keeffe-inspired artwork with this practical art project designed for primary and lower secondary pupils. This resource focuses entirely on the creative process, giving children the opportunity to explore bold composition, close-up observation and beautiful colour blending while producing artwork inspired by one of America’s most celebrated artists.

The project includes 50 printable templates featuring large flowers and animal skulls, allowing pupils to choose subjects that suit their interests and ability levels.

Two project options are included:

• Option 1: A quick colouring activity using printed templates, ideal for younger pupils, shorter lessons or supply teachers.

• Option 2: A more authentic painting project where pupils transfer their chosen template onto watercolour or mixed-media paper using carbon transfer paper before painting with watercolours, gouache or acrylics.

Step-by-step instructions explain each stage of the process, from transferring the design to building colour, shading and soft blends inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe’s distinctive style. Helpful teacher tips are included throughout, making the project suitable for mixed-age groups and a wide range of abilities.
