Collage Directions

This post is for the students in the older art class.  Here is a link to the youtube video for collage directions.  Collage    Since time is limited in class to accomplish this, I am asking students to do a little thinking, pencil, and scissor work before class on January 23.  When you get a chance this week, watch the video with your kiddo(s) and help them  to follow the steps.  Its not difficult.  I forgot to recap the steps on the video so here they are again. 1.  think of an animal or object that you like.  2 draw it on paper  3. draw a larger version of it on newspaper.  4. trace that pencil drawing in red.  (after this step, you may stop and bring it to co-op)  or do step 5. cut out the pieces of the whole  6. label the back (leg, head, arm)  7. place into a zip lock bag.  8. Bring to Co-op

Got it?

Really, I put make-up on that day, but I look like a crazy woman.  bummer that career in tv journalism may not be so promising anymore! note to self...delete video after art project. :)  anyway...new skills I learned today include uploading a crappy video to youtube, and inserting a link to it on a blog post.  Thank you, ladies, for doing this extra thing at home.
