We will also be ripping apart old paperbacks (the older the better) altering the covers with sandpaper and cutting out blocks of text. We will spend the afternoon creating collages using our stacks and piles of book parts, and we will use the book boards from the dismantled books as our substrates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThroughout the day, we will discuss collecting materials; composition and design elements; the importance of color and value; explore a variety of techniques, and how to display completed collages.
