Self-Portrait Collage Lesson:
The lesson plan linked to the photo is for an Art Two secondary class. Link: Art-2-lesson-Plan The project is a self-portrait collage. I would use this to teach students new creative ideas on how to create artwork with mixed media. The self-portrait collage I would have the students create should include pieces of magazine, newspaper, and scrapbook paper. The student will choose paper according to places, things, and colors they relate to personally. The students will be able to relate to current trends and have the opportunity to create works of art.
