The Hutchinson Art Center's make-n-take art classes are an opportunity for children aged 6 through 12 to create their own work of art! This month, students will meet at the Art Center Saturday, March 22nd and divided into two groups: Group A (1:00 to 2:30 PM) and Group B (3:00 to 4:30 PM), with each group covering different skills. Each group art class costs $8 per child.The theme for this month's project is "Exquisite Corpse Collaboration"!
An "exquisite corpse" is a collaborative art piece where participants take turns contributing to the drawing without seeing what the others have contributed. The resulting artwork can be strange, funny, and surprising!
Groups A and B will be collaborating with one another to create surreal creatures in a Exquisite Corpse project. Children will fold a paper into 4 sections. Each student will draw with a pencil the head of their creature in the top section and then everyone will pass their paper to another artist in the room to do the next section. We will repeat this process until all sections are drawn down to the feet of the creature. Students will look at Surrealist art for inspiration. The "exquisite corpse" or pencil drawn creature will be passed back to the original artist who will then color the picture and add a background using their drawing medium of choice (colored pencils, markers, crayons or graphite pencil).
