Ronald Ahlstrom, Untitled. (N.D.)
This artwork has many shapes.
Name the shapes you see.
You will make a collage of shapes.
A collage is a picture that has paper shapes.
Do you know how to cut and paste paper?
Safety counts.
Cut slowly.
Glue the edges. “Just a dot, not a lot.”
Place the shapes on your background paper.
Press down gently and smooth out the paper to make sure it sticks.
