4.7 Make Your Collage Draft
A. Create a Collage
Writers write a rough draft. Muralists make a draft, too. But instead of painting the whole mural, they make a collage.
A collage is when you take pictures from different places and combine them into one image. You might use images from a magazine and glue them together.
You will use some of the materials you gathered. As you work, you will need to choose what is most important to include in your collage. It’s ok if you don’t use everything that you gathered! When your collage is done, you’ll paint what you see in your collage.
Collage Options:
- Make your collage on paper. Cut and arrange the materials you gathered.Â
- Make a digital collage. Use your computer to assemble photos, icons, clip art, and words.
Don’t Forget:
- What is the theme or message you want to give?
- What will you include in the foreground and background?
- Think about scale. What is most important (larger)? What is a detail (smaller)?
