Notre Dame at Night

Min

In light of the recent tragedy, we wanted to make the Notre Dame at Night lesson from the Sparkler’s Club available to everyone. We hope that this project will aid you in teaching your students about the Notre Dame Cathedral through art.

We are saddened by the loss of such a historical monument but are hopeful for the future and the restoration process.

Detailed instructions are in the  PDF below for you to download. 

Step 1: Create painted paper with the wet-on-wet watercolor technique.

    Patty, this warmed my heart! So very sweet of you to share this! I think it will be a great architecture drawing for the students. I was thinking to try marker print on foil or freezer paper for the color.

    Thank you for the beautiful lesson! What a tribute!

  • Debra J Rogers

    I was happy to see this Notre Dame of Paris lesson available, as I am doing to tribute to the magnificent structure first quarter next school year. I do, however, think I will have students do the watercolor after drawing the cathedral. I do understand that doing the painting first frees students from focusing on the structure, but I am hoping that the structure will inspire students to imagine the beautiful lights that shine on the cathedral at night.

  • Natalie
