MS Art - Trees of Life

In Middle School Art we recently did a study on the Tree of Life. First we looked at and discussed this famous painting called The Tree of Life by Gustav Klimt:

 Then we looked at the Tree of Life in the Bible. Did you know that the Biblical Tree of Life is mentioned in the books of Genesis, Proverbs, and Revelation? It's pretty interesting to read about. Read Genesis chapters 2 & 3, Revelation chapters 2 and 22, and finally Proverbs 3:18, 11:30, 13:12, and 15:4. Finally, students got to draw or paint their own idea of the Tree of Life. Some are beautiful, some humorous, and some pretty interesting! See our students' Trees of Life below. (Click on each photo to see more closely.)
