Have fun creating these collage face art. Very easy to create using images from magazines, greeting cards…

Follow the slides to see how to make your art and you can also download the face template or draw your own if you can’t print it out.

I can’t wait to see what you create.

Have fun 🙂 Miss Manna

Andy Warhol’s soup cans, Roy Lichtenstein’s cartoon panels, David Hockney’s swimming pools — meet the icons of Pop art! Pop art elevates everyday objects in a bright, fun and bold visual style that, well, pops.

If you feel like your creativity needs a little “KERPOW!” of energy, you may want to borrow ideas from Pop art. All you need is a basic understanding of its mission: celebrating our daily lives in a vibrant, vivid way.

Watch the video of ‘Pop Art’ and then follow the instructions to make your own POP art!

Have fun  🙂 Miss Manna

Optical Art was made famous by Mc Escher. He had an amazing ability to create drawings and pictures using mathematics, lines and imagination to create his works of art.

Optical Drawing activities: Enlarge each image to see instructions/steps.

Have fun creating your own optical illusions 🙂

Materials: A4 white paper, lead pencil, marker (for tracing over), circular object to trace around (glass/cup), colouring in items (pencils, textas, paints, crayons – your choice)

Step 1. Trace around your circular object. Fill the page with circles (have some go off the page). You can use a lead pencil first if you want or you can use the markers/sharpie straight away.

Step 2. Use different colours to colour in every section. Try not to have the same colour next to each other.

Step 3. Take a photo of your artwork and upload it on to Seesaw under the Visual Arts folder.

Have fun and I look forward to seeing your finished artwork 🙂

Materials: A4 white paper, pencil, ruler, eraser, a found object

Step 1. Rule up your page into 6 boxes (see example)

Step 2. Place your object in front of you and pay attention to all the details you can see (from one view) Draw it carefully.

Step 3. Now place your object in 5 other positions and draw them. Remember to pay attention to detail and make them up close.

Step 4. You can colour in your drawings if you like otherwise take a photo and upload it on to Seesaw under the Visual Arts folder.

Have fun looking closely at the details of your object in different angles and positions 🙂

Found Object drawing.

Step 1. Find objects around the house and place it on a blank piece of paper.

Step 2. Using a pencil/sharpie/marker and your imagination, turn your objects into interesting things by drawing around it.

Be creative and think outside the box!
