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.

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

This interactive game allows children to deal with the human figure and their surroundings in art pieces. The different elements and images the children can use are all from paintings done by American naive artists. Just to let everyone know you will need a plug-In called Shockwave Player.
This interactive lesson could help children to compose a portrait or a landscape and to then go back and paint or draw what they have learned and experimented with. If children are learning about atmospheric perspective they can create a landscape that has accurate sizing of objects located in the foreground, middle ground and background. Faces and Places
