Hi everyone! Today I have a great giveaway for all of you art lovers out there! I was excited to review the See the Light Tiffany Window art project DVD.

If you haven’t done a See the Light DVD before, they’re great. They offer basic skill art class DVDs, bible story lessons, and an art project series where students learn styles of various well known artists.

These videos are especially great for those of you who aren’t great at teaching art class because, well, you don’t have to! A very nice woman named Pat teaches them for you!

Pros:

  • Videos are detailed, and various skills are explained quite thoroughly.
  • You can pause & review the DVD as needed for your students.
  • Lessons are fun and engaging.
  • Lessons end with a nice completed project.

Cons:

  • Videos can be long, so sometimes you have to break in a lesson and complete it the following day.

We’ve reviewed See the Light Art Class DVDs before as well and they’re all so fun! These are specific projects that teach the artistic style of Louis Comfort Tiffany.

During this project your students will plan their composition, learn the “rule of thirds”, learn a bit on color theory and background shapes, and then finally complete their masterpiece using colorful markers, black sharpie, and pencil.

They start out with a basic pencil drawing, then go back in to add color. Finally they create the multi-colored background shapes to make the project reflect a true stained glass type window image.

Strawberry shortcake chose to use watercolor pencils, so when she was finished with her drawing, she went over it with water to blend each color. If you haven’t tried these pencils before, I highly recommend them! The effect is wonderful!

  1. Hi Erica
    Just wanted to say that I started Pat’s first year course with my kids this year (I believe u got me hooked after your last review of her art curriculum) – and we are really enjoying it!! It doesn’t matter that they are all on different levels in their abilities, there’s always something new to learn, and review is good too.

    Just wanted to encourage your readers who haven’t given this one a go- to “give it a go!” 🙂

    Thanks again for all you do, Erica.
    Blessings,
    Lil 🙂

  2. I read your review on this series a few weeks back, went to the website to check it out and watched a couple of the free video’s. It looks amazing. I am looking high and low for used curriculum for the one’s I have decided on and hoping there might be enough leftover to get this. However, free is even better!!! Crossing my fingers! 🙂 Thank you for this opportunity. You such a blessing to the homeschooling community.

    Thank you!
    Heather
