Architectural masterpieces

Collage is a go to art project and you'll probably see me post about it many times. It is one of those rare "ready made" creative processes that you don't really need to think too much about in planning. If you have an interesting collection of pictures, do-dads, even scraps of paper from previous projects, you've got the makings of a beautiful piece.

These pieces came from a discussion we had about medieval architecture and gargoyles. After choosing different drawings of architectural elements, interesting dimensional pieces were added as the top layer. Artists placed pre-cut branch and leaf shapes, skeleton leaves and laser cut wood circles (the artists were very excited about decorating these in glitter!) to give the pieces a lot of depth. As always, my favorite part was the many conversations that were sparked both by the theme and the process itself.
