Joyce Owens is an artist from Chicago who both paints and creates these amazing 3d face sculptures/ assemblages/reliefs. See here work HERE. Children were shown her work in class and seeing as we have been working on identifying parts of our faces (see those lessons HERE and HERE) this was the logical next step.
These faces took three 35-minute lesson.
1. Glue on base parts
2. Use 6 colors, red, yellow, blue, black, white and brown to paint the entire face.
3. Continue painting, this time, with thinner brushes to detail.
The recycled materials ranged from corks, cut up toilet paper tubes, raffia, too-short-to-use colored pencils, tape rolls, popsicle sticks, cut-up cardboard.
Finished works hung in the hallways. Teachers hot glue a loop in the back with some yard to make it easy to staple on a bulletin strip or board.
