2. Collage: • A Collage is an artwork created by gluing pictures together • You will need to gather up images in order to construct a new image • Images can be built from either whole photos or areas of color • You may use images from magazines, newspapers, prints from the internet, or even old artwork you have done • Your collage should create an illusion of depth by using foreground, middle-ground, and background

3. Creating space: • Foreground • The nearest objects to us • Middle-ground • Everything between the closest objects and the horizon • Background • Objects on the horizon

17. Bring in your own magazines! • Needs to be a school appropriate magazine • Needs to be school appropriate images • Don’t bring anything you aren’t willing to cut • Xeroxes of images work well too! • Text can be included, but should be limited (it destroys the illusion of space)
