ART
– Week 7 – Nature Collage
WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:
·
Take a bag or
container outside with you.
·
Find natural
objects that you think look interesting. Think about their patterns, textures,
colours and shapes. Collect roughly 20 objects (e.g. sticks, grass, leaves,
flowers, seeds etc.)
·
Go to a flat
surface to work (concrete, dirt, paper).
·
Arrange all of
the items in front of you.
·
Group all of
the objects into colours (e.g. all browns together, greens together, etc.)
·
Arrange your
objects from the lightest colour to the darkest colour.
·
Take a photo of your collage colour chart.
·
Using your
objects, create a picture of anything you like. (An animal or an insect is a
good idea if you are stuck.) Think about what you want to create, and which
colours or textures you will need to use to create that image so that it is as
realistic as possible. You can collect more natural objects if needed. You can use PVA glue* to glue the
objects down, and can add pen or pencil lines where desired. * If you do not
have PVA glue just lie the objects down in your picture.
·
When you have finished, take a
photo.
