Description:
Explore art and the act of creating collage through a creative process. This 7-week course will be offered in a workshop style so students will leave each class with a finished or semi-finished project. Using imagination and intuition, each student creates a work from simple materials using the basic elements of design (line, space, colour, form, value and texture) while exploring the principles of design (repetition, contrast, balance, unity and movement). Students are encouraged to bring in line drawings of scenes, specific objects or creatures for composition(s). Students will experiment with different papers and techniques to create spirited and innovative collages while learning about colour, composition, texture, edges and shape. Students will also learn about artists who have made their mark on the art world, including Gustav Klimt, Pablo Picasso and Henri Matisse. Other topics covered include inventory of materials and tools, transparency, layering, value, colour theory, negative space, and creating textures. The use of text and mono-printing using impressed surfaces and stencils will be introduced as well. Creating in any genre — the realistic to the abstract — is encouraged along with the use of unique and interesting materials. SUPPLIES LIST – (* bring EVERY week – don’t let your creativity down!!)
