Holiday Hanging Art

 

 

This photo is the back and front of the same art project.

 

 

 

After choosing the 2 illustrations

 they glued the illustration  on the center of half the  A3 bristol paper that is folded at the end.

While the glue dryed,  they embossed the aluminium sheet with a holiday sign.

 

Around the illustrations I added lines , as a starting point to design the decoration. They continued the line to create a pattern to color; each making an original design.  

The A3 bristol is folded in 2, and put together with a staple to the alluminum hanger.

We used wooden sticks that were cut from a decrative fance that was about to be thrown away. 

Reuse Cardboard : Mobile, SeaShells

This is a great summer artproject ! reUse!  REpost !!
...

This summer project, cardboard mobile "shells" was hanged on the outside swing.

First they created the cardboard collage; on a pre cut recycled cardboard they glued squared shape precut cardcoard. After covering one side of the cardboard they turned the cardboard over and glued shapes on the reverse side. This step was repeated at least twice, and then put aside to dry.

 

 

 

The second object on the mobile is made from wavy cardboard. The shape was stapled to create a 3 dimension shape looking like a shell. The wavy side (outer side) is painted with gauche. For the inner side, I added glue to the paint and with a spoon color sand was poured on the object.

 

Van Gogh Landscape , Clay Artproject

RePost from Jul 30, 2009, first month of blogging

Beautiful work of art were made inspired by Van Gogh landscape drawing during 2 lessons.

A line drawing was choosen, I made 4 options, I simplifed Van Gogh drawings found in the internet.

On a heavy cardboard a rectangle was drawen the size of the line drawings.

From clay a block rectangle was made over the drawn rectangle.

With a pointy tool they traced the line illustration on the clay.

Once the landscape illustration was traced they were ready to work on the clay.

The lines of the drawing were formed with dry sticks and cotton rope.

 

 

Dotted designs were embossed with a variety of tools in all the areas of the landscape.

Last stage was to put a light layer of glue and let it dry.
The second lesson, the clay was dry.

A heavy layer of glue was rubbed on and around clay so that the artwork will be strong on the board.

Color gauche were mixed to form the color of the sky and fields .

Last stage was to color the artwork.

They all created beautiful clay tablet.
