Collage is a great way to use colour to express thoughts, feelings and emotions.
Using black and white as a background creates dramatic contrast, depth and focus.
The contrast between black and white naturally draws the eye.
we will then select a dominant colour scheme to convey our message.
Adding a statement colour to a black and white background leads to a profound artistic statement.
Placing colour draws attention to specific elements of the collage.
We will think about the shapes we cut or tear to compliment the message we wish to convey.
Jagged lines for example might depict anger or confusion where as smooth flowing lines may represent calm.
For this class you will need to collect up coloured papers , scraps of material, magazine pictures , book pages and some black paper scraps.
Think about the emotion behind the message you want to portray and choose a dominant colour that you feel is best to express it.
