Monday May 7

Objective: The student will use create a work of art using collage and mixed media to create a drawing based on images that are grouped together and appear conceptually linked.
Step one: Divide a sheet of drawing paper to make an irregular grid with a large box in the center and 10 or smaller surrounding boxes.
Step two: Glue a picture or create a drawing in the center panel which will serve as the reference, or “trigger” image. You may use a previous drawing, or portion of a drawing a photograph, photocopy or magazine picture.
Step three: In the smaller units, glue images which are associated with the trigger image, either in a symbolic or psychological way, images that represent how you think and feel about the trigger image.

You may combine collage and drawing to make a personal and aesthetic statement by working into them with colored pencils or other art materials.
