  • What is art?
  • What is art for?
  • Why did the artist make it like that?
  • Was it magical? Religious? To celebrate something?
  • To tell a story?
  • How did the artist earn a living?
  • What tools, materials, and techniques did the artist use?
  • Are there hidden meanings that can become clear?

Activities to try at home.
