Floral Paper Piecing: Create a Collage of Daises with Magazine Photos

Student will learn to choose photos for the colors and 'textures' they are looking to include in their piece.  We will then begin with the background and collage the colors that will serve as the backdrop for our daisies, keeping in mind 'values' and shades of the color that will allowing the daisies to 'pop' once applied on top.

I will teach them how to get more than one look from a torn piece of paper and how to work loosely to create a more 'abstract' representation of a floral image.

This class requires minimal supplies and allows room for students to choose their own colors and shapes to create a one-of-a-kind creative piece.

**BASIC CLASS NOTES** (Please read)

I begin on time.  If a student is late, they will need to jump in and catch up as they are able.  I cannot re-start the class for each late arrival.  You may request a recording of the class if child arrives late or ends up being unable to attend.

{If a PAINTING class has a drawing or element to print out and trace, please have this done BEFORE the start of class (it will be posted in the classroom several hours before start of class). For these classes, we will not be taking the time to draw that element in class, but will begin with painting our piece, so the student will be woefully behind and unable to get the painting instruction needed if not done before class.  They are welcome to draw their own version of what I post, but need to do so before start of that class as we will begin painting when class begins.}

I encourage creativity and self-expression.  Students may veer from what I am doing to find their own 'voice'.  Also, I encourage interaction during class (please be polite by sharing talk time and muting when there is background noise in the home).  Otherwise, I welcome questions as we go along and open mics.

If your student enjoys this art time and would like to attend my art clubs, please look for these on Outschool or message me for times that might suit better, now that school has begun.  

I soooo look forward to seeing your child in class.
