ARTS CLASS --- Wednesday 26th May -- Dali's Project

Hi children,
We are going to do a project and it's going to be the last one about Dali. 
You will reproduce one of his paintings with the technique of Collage.
You'll choose one painting and then, three or four techniques of collage (not only one).

I'm going to give the techniques and the paintings (you can choose among the examples I'll give you. You can copy the painting into your paper or just, use a photocopy).

Let's talk about the techniques. There are different types of collage, here you have the ones I want you to use. Please read and think...

1st. Paper/Magazine/cardboard Collage
These collages are made from random things in magazines. They can be cut out or ripped and then stuck onto a common surface. Magazines can be replaced with newspapers, cardboard, colour papers... to give a different feel and look.

2nd. Fabric Collage
Fabric collage are very different to the first I talked about, because this one doesn't involve pictures already on the material, instead, you create the picture with the fabric. The fabric can be cut into many shapes and stuck down on a surface.


3rd. Dimensional Collage
3D Collage art is placing 3D items on a surface and creating something new. Some items that can be used are: rocks, beads, coins, buttons, sticks, new and old objects. If you want you can keep it as all natural items and do a sustainability project. 


4th. Mosaic

Mosaic is a type of collage. Most people know of tiled mosaic art, however there are a few different types. Others include paper, marble, stone and more. You can find these types of collage in cathedrals, churches and temples.
