Objectives:
- to reinforce and practice techniques of relief assemblage/sculpture
- to encourage creative re-use of waste and recyclables
- to create an artwork involving multiple steps
Process:
1. Set out a few tubs of tempera paint, brushes, texture items and let the kids paint their cardboard backings.
You can have the kids use small cups to make rings on the paper. Simple dip cup into white tempera paint and dot the page as you like.
2.With the background paper set aside (but not far away), set out a tray of cardboard pieces. Kids can cut cardboard to any shape they wish. They can color the cardboard with oil pastels. Have the children set and glue their robot to the background paper as they make it.
