Vincent Van Gogh Starry Night
This is Vincent Van Gogh, he was an artist who lived a very long time ago. He painted this picture of himself, it s called a self portrait. Sometimes at nursery we draw or paint pictures of ourselves and put them into our family books. Could you draw or paint a picture of yourself? You could use lots of different materials ~ pens, pencils, paints, or you could even use recycled materials such as tissue, cardboard, Christmas cards. You could even look in the mirror to help you.
