Landscape Collage-Rush Creek Elementary, MN

An all new session of KidzArt Classes starte today at Rush Creek Elementary School in Maple Grove, MN.  This session, Mixed Media Mania!, is all about different materials.  Today students created a landscape using different paper, gemstones, and glitter paint! 

First we talked about what a collage was (collage: is a technique of an art production, primarily used in the visual arts, where the artwork is made from an assemblage of different forms, thus creating a new whole).  Which students could relate to having done before with pictures or a group project. 

Then we talked about different landscapes and what kind of landscape they wanted to create in their collage.  A few students chose to create a nice warm landscape (a nice thought in the middle of winter here in Minnesota!).
