Presentation Content

Photo collages/4 digital head shots of the children

We took digital head shots of the children (about four of each) and printed them out.  We discussed Hockney and his extensive use of photo collage.  We gave them the photos and suggested they cut each in quarters to begin with.  We gave them 11”x14” paper to “reconstruct” themselves on (glue sheets).  Some children cut the pictures into smaller pieces.  

Comments The result was a series of excellent photo collages of the kids, and they were thrilled
