Tips On Creating A Halloween Collage Art
Collage art is technique in art composed of cutting and sticking natural or crafted materials to a painted or unpainted surface. It’s primarily in the visual arts, created from an assemblage of various kinds placed together to form a new whole art. A collage can sometimes include broadsheets clippings, frills, bits of tinted or hand-made papers, portions of other artworks, pictures together with other found items that are stuck to a sheet of paper, construction paper or canvas.
Making collage art lets you change common elements such as paper and found materials into an artwork. Because it is the month of October it is suitable to make a Halloween collage art, it’s especially fun to make because you can certainly create a feeling of spookiness or humor with old-fashioned Halloween cards, cutout words, and altered photos.
Here are tips on how to start a Halloween mixed media collage art:
1. Be motivated by looking at the Internet for concepts for Halloween collage art. There are plenty of photos online that has vibrant pictures with ghouls, pumpkins as well as witches. If you’re creating a collage art with small children it will be a good idea to see the images to make sure the images are child safe.
2. Buy some card stock with a Halloween, autumn or maybe creepy theme. Put it to use as the backdrop, or paint a canvas stretcher board black or midnight blue. You can make it more creative by adding your or the kids’s sketches on the collage art. It’ll convey a touch of your individuality.
3. Look for photographs again you can find various online. Several art collage designers use Victorian photos, but you may use family photos or cutouts from books and magazines. Excellent resources for photographs are thrift stores and garage sales. A few graphic designers advertise collage sheets that can be downloaded and printed or shipped in the mail. Photos from Halloween greeting cards can also be found in this format.
4. Mount the backdrop to support with transparent tacky glue or a adhesive stick. Any kind of even, strong surface that will not twist is acceptable. You can use a board, a canvas stretcher, a paper mache or wood plaque, a playing card, or a tag. It’s also possible to produce a shadow box with an empty candy jar or shallow box.
5. Cut out images. Cut witch hats from black paper, designed paper or newsprint. Stick image to the backdrop and affix the witch hat. Clip words with a Halloween or scary design from worn out books or magazines. Stick them to the collage.
6. Put some extra on your collage artwork, such as cutouts from classic or contemporary Halloween greeting cards, old jewelry and buttons, scrabble tiles, bottle caps with words stamped in it, fibers and beads. Work with chalks, watercolors, distressing inks or rubber stamps to focus on or add more elements. Be as creative as you can be.
7. Punch holes in the piece and attach wire to hold it or you may tape the Halloween collage art on the wall.
Collage art is really a fun pastime for you and your whole family members especially if you have young ones with wild mind or creativity. It’s actually an art you could save and give them once they get older.
