This was a collaborative project I did with one of the Science teachers at my school. He was teaching his kids about food chains and wanted an art project to go along with it. He found THIS image via Pinterest as initial inspiration for the project. UPDATE: The poster was designed by art director and illustrator Dhanashri Ubhayakar for the magazine Sanctuary Asia, an Indian nature and wildlife conservation magazine. I turned the digital image into a collage project using construction paper. I used 12 x 18" construction paper. Have a background colour (in my case, turquoise). Then start with your largest animal (the top predator, I guess... the Science teacher explained this part to the kids, heh, heh) I folded my paper vertically so I only had to draw half the polar bear and it also made it symmetrical. I collaged on the eyes, nose and teeth from scraps of paper. Then make all the other animals slightly smaller... My messy workspace below.... Ok- once you have all the animals (our students were required to have 3 animals plus a plant) it's time to layer them and glue it all together. This took some fiddling and such, but I found it easiest to lay it all out and then start from gluing the smallest middle part first (the plant- I lost my mini tree) and work your way up. I used dots of white glue. It went faster than using a glue stick. Grade 7 student results!
Squeeze glue, layer materials, and make collage art with these fun activities for kids. A wonderful medium to explore with toddlers on up!

Une touche de déco aujourd'hui à l'atelier, grâce au nuancier que le peintre qui a réalisé les travaux chez nous m'a gracieusement laissé (avec un petit air à peine masqué entre curiosité et incompréhension "elle est dingue celle-là qu'est-ce qu'elle peut bien vouloir faire avec mon vieux nuancier ?!"). Bref j'avais déjà ma petite idée en tête, que j'ai réalisée pour notre livre, et je viens de récidiver avec un tryptique fruité, toujours à base de triangles dégradés. Vous pouvez bien entendu retrouver la méthode dans le livre et varier les plaisirs avec d'autres dessins (animaux, origamis, diamants, etc). Montrez-nous vos réalisations ! Pour ceux qui n'auraient pas encore feuilleté "Inspirations géométriques", voici un aperçu de ce que peut donner ce type de collages en plus grand format. (photo D. Bizet, Stylisme C.

The more I look at Matisse's artwork, the more it really speaks to me. I love his vibrant colors and the way his artwork expresses such movement. Around this time last year, Chuck and I made Matisse Collages from construction paper. We had such fun making them together... that I thought we could take it to the next level... wall murals! Making Matisse Murals with Kids This post contains affiliate links. Thank you for your support! Yup. We made ourselves Matisse mural. The idea was inspired by this gorgeous kate zaremba wallpaper. (Love, love, loooove!) Here's how we did it! First, Chuck and I grabbed a bunch of paint chips and got cutting. (Two things I've learned recently... 1) Preschoolers LOVE scissors. So Chuck's totally on board anytime cutting is involved. 2) Paint chips are like construction paper... on steroids. They're seriously one of my favorite crafting materials. They come in fabulous, modern colors and they're free! Woot woot! That's why I used them to make a Christmas tree advent calendar and paint chip wall art.) Then, I taped a large piece of white craft paper onto the wall. Then we pulled out our trusty glue sticks, cutout shapes, and circle stickers and began making art! The circle stickers by far were his favorite to stick onto the wall. And we just kept going and going and going! I thought it would be fun to glue on super large googly eyes. While we got gluing, Chuck realized that he could also glue on glue sticks. While they didn't stay stuck for long, he enjoyed the diversion. And then we used washable markers to add finishing touches. (Side note: Thank goodness washable markers really are washable. I left him for just a moment and when I got back there was marker all over the wall too.) I loved how the results turned out, but the best part about this project for me was hearing Chuck say "Look mommy, I'm an artist." Yes you are, Chuck. Yes you are.

This is a challenging 5th grade Pop Art project for art teachers wanting to infuse literacy into their art lessons. Reinforce onomatopoeia words by studying Andy Warhol's prints and Roy Lichtenstein's comic strip artwork with benday dots. Combine collage, printmaking, and hand lettering techniques into one art lesson!
Beskrivelse af idéen: Pop-art virker hver gang. Den umiddelbare fascination af genkendelige motiver, de klare farver og den lettilgængelige og høje ”lækkerhedsfaktor” taler til de fleste børn og unge. Andy Warhol skabte med sine silketryk af skuespillere, statsoverhoveder og andre berømtheder, en serie ikoniske portrætter, som gennem en periode på over 50 år har inspireret generationer af billedmagere. I dette forløb tager vi udgangspunkt i et Andy-Warhol pop art-udtryk og arbejder med parafraser over den østjyske billedkunstner Allan Stochholms humoristiske billedserie ”Hovedretter”. For Hinnerup Billedskole har kunstneren Allan Stochholm en helt særlig betydning, da han bor og arbejder i Hinnerup og en gang om året, med sin kunstnergruppe, Primus, udstiller i vores lokale kulturhus, hvor også billedskolen udstiller efter hver sæson. Det er oplagt og meget relevant at inddrage lokale kunstnere i billedkunsttimerne. Det giver en større forståelse for det lokale kulturliv og hvis der oven i købet kan etableres en kontakt til den pågældende kunstner, og vedkommende kan inddrages i den åbne skole, får forløbet en helt ny dimension. I dette forløb arbejder eleverne med digitale billeder, tegning og enkel collage. Der hentes inspiration i kulturens billeder. Idéen kan bruges på alle klassetrin. Sådan kan du gøre: Se på Andy Warhols pop art-portrætter og Allan Stochholms billedserie ”Hovedværker”. Se eksempel på Allans malerier her: https://issuu.com/avform/docs/101445_billedkunst_november_2015_no Lad eleverne tage digitale fotos af hinanden, mens de forestiller sig, at der står en ret på deres hoved. Hvordan ønsker den enkelte elev at ansigtsudtrykket skal understrege stemningen i billedet? Er det en livret, der skal stå på hovedet – eller er det det den mest ulækre ret, eleven kan forestille sig? Lad eleverne beskære deres fotos digitalt og bearbejde dem, så de fremstår i sort/hvid med stor kontrast. Print billederne ud og farvelæg dem med tusch Lad eleverne tegne, fx deres yndlings – eller ”hade”-retter på hvidt tegnepapir. Tegn op med blyant og farvelæg med tusch. Træk evt. konturstreger op med sort tusch. Bunden i billedet laves ved at lime en komposition af papircirkler i forskellige farver og størrelser på et stykke rivepapir som er lidt mindre end et A4 ark. Brug evt. en puncher til at standse cirkler ud med eller lad eleverne klippe dem i hånden. Klip portrættet og maden ud, så du lader en lille farvet kant blive rundt om motiverne, og lim dem op på baggrunden. Monter billedet på sort kardus eller rivepapir, så det får en ramme. Tip: Idéen kan også bruges til fx ”drømmebilleder”, hvor eleverne arbejder med hvad de drømmer om eller ønsker sig. Materialer: Sort/hvide portrætter af eleverne, printet ud på almindeligt printerpapir, farvede tuscher, sorte sprittuscher, fx Edding 400, rivepapir, sort kardus, limstifter, sakse + punchere.

Another project in my big Art History unit with my students is finally all displayed and ready to be shared! The two above were chosen for Youth Art Month at the Portage County Library! I found this project via pinterest (which is the worst kind of pinterest post). JUST an image. However, this image was actually pretty useful for understanding the project. Day 1: Picasso intro! Short and sweet powerpoint with a YouTube video of Picasso in action. I did stop it a minute early because he paints a naked lady (and I wasn't ready to tackle that). They really seemed to enjoy this short clip, makes the artist a lot more real to them. If only we had video of Van Gogh! After the video we played "Roll a Picasso" here is a version on Teachers Pay Teachers but I made my own to add a view more parts to it. My students absolutely loved this. They did it for 30 minutes without getting bored! I told them there was no mistakes, they didn't need to erase, and they would take them with them when they left. If they got sick of drawing they could switch to coloring them. I really wish I would of taken some pictures. There was really great ones! Day 2: I show them a little poster that I put together reminding them of some things about Picasso and showing some of his other works. Then I demo drawing the different features on the paper scraps using oil pastels and finishing with a black crayon. I saw such a higher level of confidence of this project and I think it was because of the Roll a Picasso. They had come in knowing what their strengths were with what features, and I didn't limit them to the ones on the sheet either. If there was a way they wanted to draw a feature or knew how, they did it. Day 3: Showed the poster once again just to remind them of Picasso (seeing as we only see each other once every six school days)! And started with a short demo of creating the head shape and coloring and assembling it. Started with drawing the head, arranging the pieces, traced them, took them off and colored the sections of the face with oil pastels. If it didn't naturally break into sections they did it where they thought best. Last step was glue sticking them on and tracing the added paper and lines in black crayon. I am so excited to share these with you, I just LOVE how these turned out! McDill Elementary... Kennedy Elementary... Jefferson Elementary...
