We learned about the famous artist Amedeo Modigliani and his unique portrait style. Modigliani was known for painting people with long necks, oval faces, and calm, dreamy eyes. His portraits often had a soft, emotional feeling, and he used gentle colors and smooth lines to show beauty and personality in a simple way.
We looked closely at some of Modigliani’s masterpieces and talked about what made his style special. The students noticed how different his portraits looked compared to realistic ones—and how each painting seemed to tell a quiet story through expression and shape.
After that, the students created their own Modigliani-inspired portraits. They carefully drew long faces and necks, added simple features, and coloured their art using soft tones, just like Modigliani.
Each portrait turned out beautifully, showing how the students understood his unique style and added their own creativity.
It was a wonderful lesson filled with observation, imagination, and self-expression!
