NGA Kids - Arts Online: Interactive Homeschool Studies

NGA Kids from the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC.
Interactive Art exploration appropriate for all ages.

PHOTO OP
This interactive activity introduces you to digital photography and image editing. Use the virtual camera to snap photos, then edit the images or add special effects to create your own works of art.

BRUSHster
An interactive painting machine that creates abstract art online. Express yourself! Paint colorful abstractions or use the program to design your own note cards, wrapping paper, or screensaver art. The program has forty brushes and two dozen special effects, plus there's an AUTO button that makes BRUSHster fun for all ages.

STILL LIFE
Create an interactive Still Life that mirrors the paintings of the old masters. We have a few surprises in store for you in our (not so still) Still Life program.

DUTCH DOLLHOUSE
Mix and match colorful characters, create decorative objects, and explore the kitchen, living quarters, artist's studio, and courtyard of this interactive 17th-century Dutch House.

COLLAGE MACHINE
fun for children of all ages. Click a picture and see what happens, or roll over the question mark and hold down the mouse button to learn how the program works. The AUTO button makes a new arrangement for you each time you click. Use the big green arrows to change picture menus. Your collages will disappear if you click the eraser, close your browser, or shut down your computer.

JUNGLE
Create a tropical jungle filled with tigers, monkeys, and other exotic creatures. Inspired by the art of Henri Rousseau, NGAkids Jungle is an interactive art activity for children of all ages.
