Learn Collage
"Shoe Collage" I used pictures from a shoe catalog to make this collage. Shoe pictures repeating a pattern over and over again make the composition.
What is collage? Collage is a creative method of collecting a variety of materials and exploring how they might be put together into a composition. The ultimate goal of collage is to assemble a collection of objects and materials and transform them into a new visual form. The materials used in collage can range from found papers, scraps of fabric, wood, plastic, grasses and seeds, buttons, beads, stamps, etc. The range of materials and the possibilities of combination are limitless! Today, collage is considered an established art form, and it often evokes a provocative and sometimes humorous reaction as common, everyday objects are magically transformed and given new meaning. The skills acquired through making a collage are both visual and physical. They require us to re-see the context of the many common objects around us and create new combinations of these common objects towards unique art forms. Collage requires minimal art supplies--basically scissors, glue and cardboard or mat board are all you need (plus, what you will have collected in the way of found materials!) Click below to begin!
