Positive/Negative Shapes
One way to achieve harmony in a composition is to repeat positive and negative spaces which vary in size, color, texture or value. Using card stock, construction paper and safety scissors, Anitra Redlefsen walks you and your students through creating cool collages and mobiles in the spirit of Henri Matisse.
Rock and Wire Mobile
A mobile is something that has a life of its own, so its ok to have it be responsive to its environment. (ie, when you move it falls over!) Not to worry! Balance it again. Rearrange the parts until you once again have a balanced and good design. A mobile is flexible, unpredictable, organic, responsive, whimsical, fun and delightful!
