Distance Learning: Surrealism

Kia ora everyone! Welcome to the next instalment of distance art learning. I have included lots of videos this week to help you along with your art. Start with the first two videos and chose your activities from there. Do as many of the activities as you chose. Happy creating!

Activity One: Collage

Have a go at collaging like the surrealists! Watch the videos below and create your own wacky artworks. Remember to share your work on Seesaw, I can’t wait to see what you make.

Collage is for everyone. This collage was arranged with help of my 2 year old son.

Remember to think about balance and layering when making your composition.
