For our calendars this year we chose to use some recycled materials. Many of the artworks you see here have a message.
For our artwork we used an illustration from The Red Tree by Shaun Tan as our inspiration.
We looked closely at the illustration. We spoke about the main shapes that we could see and the colours that were used. We also looked at how the layering effect was created and what messages were being given.
As a class we wrote a brief procedure on how to complete the work. We had to make sure we started from the background and worked our way up.
We dyed newspaper, cut out old pictures from dictionaries, magazines and junk mail.
This took us a long time but the art we have completed is amazing.
Come up to our class and have a closer look if you like.
