FROM THE LESSON ON COLLAGE, CIRCA 2002

Collage By Shaina G. - age: around 9

About 10 years ago a young student in my 'creative drawing class' made this spectacularly clever collage using cutouts from magazines and a charcoal pencil. -- Notice the skillful rendering of arms and hands, and the detail on the index finger, where the young artist placed a blue fingerprint!
