Homeschool Art Project: Collaborative ArtPrize Collage

This past September, we went to see ArtPrize, a huge outdoor art competition held in downtown Grand Rapids.  Artists from all over the world find a place to exhibit their art and people from all over can attend and vote for their favorite art.    Most of the artists had business cards, postcards, or pamphlets about their piece for visitors to pick up, so I had the kids grab the cards of the pieces that they really liked. 

I pulled those cards out today and RJ and Emily made a collage with them.  We talked about visual balance, layers, color schemes and more.  This project was a lot of fun for them and it got them excited to go to ArtPrize again this fall!
