Detective art game


www.eduweb.com/pintura/a1.html

This is a detective game where you're given a painting and have to match what artist made it. It gives you six artists to choose from and a copy of their work: Raphael, Titian, Millet, Van Gogh, Gauguin and Picasso. The painting is a Millet so this would be a good start for kids when learning about Millet's work.

The MONDRIMAT is a simple system which lets you experiment with space, color and visual rhythm in accordance with the theories of Piet Mondrian.

Great website to create your own Mondrian using technology instead of painting.
