Collage

Bethany and I are doing a presentation about what a collage is and how to make a collage. A collage is a form of art that uses different materials such as pictures, fabric, and different types of paper etc. which are all arranged and pasted to a backing. Some collages are more personal with photographs and some are just about fun. You have to create a theme or a certain look that you want to try to achieve when making your collage. Some artists will paint on a canvas and glue objects on to it after the painting to give it a 3D affect this is also considered a collage. These pictures are a few different collages to give you some ideas to start. We will be doing our presentation Monday January 23 so make sure you have an idea of what you would like to do for your collage. You may use any types of materials such as glitter, fabric, buttons etc.. If you have anything specific you wish to use on your collage such as personal photographs or something else please be sure to bring it with you to class on Monday January 23 (we will also be presenting our example of a collage on this date as well). Thanks Everyone! To formally give credit where credit is due the collage of the dog is called "DOG ART: Boxer Dog Pop Art Collage" by Michel Keck and you can look at more of his collages on his website ModernDogArt.com. The other collage is called "P390 - Front & Center 3D Collage w/Story" by Crystal Neubauer and you can look at more of her collages on her blog called "Crystal Neubauer art and objects."
