Artist Visit: Wayne Brezinka

 We are so lucky to have Wayne Brezinka's kids at our school because that means I get a special artist visit each year. He currently has a son in kindergarten and he came last week for a special collaboration project with the kids. First he showed some of his work, focusing on collage and how he's been working with 'trees' a lot lately.

After that we jumped right into a project with mixed media collage on cereal boxes. 

We used watered down Elmer's glue, book pages, maps, newspapers, painted paper scraps and tempera paint to create these super fun "forest collages". 

I love these girls getting into cutting up some newspaper!

Here's some of the finished pieces....

Sorry some of these need to be rotated. Does anyone know how to do that in this program? Do I always have to "pre-edit" pictures?
