PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Students will explore examples of modern and contemporary art that cleverly combine line, shape and texture to depict human faces and figures. During this guided activity, students will etch, cut, glue, and assemble a variety of materials to create stamps and collagraphs that they’ll subsequently use to create their own imaginative set of colourful characters.
