Assignment Uno
This is a great exercise to get your creativity flowing! It helps not to overthink and wonder what comes next. The objective is to work quickly and intuitively within the five minute timing. Do not worry if the collage does not look ‘finished.’
Five collages, five minutes each is the modus operandi. Collect five small piles of images and ephemera in five small plastic bags or folders. Once the bags or folders have an interesting assortment of choices take a 3 by 5 cardboard or 140 lb. water colour paper or other background and start gluing every which way! Don’t forget to start the five minute timer. If you like what emerges in the timed collage you can always return to it and add additional features…or not.
You just may surprise yourself with your mini collages! Now go and collect that ephemera and those images!
I’ll post this week. Feel free to send me pictures of yours to canadacalling88@yahoo.ca.
