In a lively, inviting style, the author explains how to create striking artwork using white glue and a variety of other adhesives. She treats adhesives as a serious - but enjoyable and versatile - art medium. Activities show how to incorporate shape, form, texture, and color into the artworks. Many projects combine glue with chalk, markers, paints, and other media. Techniques include printmaking, collage, batiking without wax, and sculpting with string and starch. There's even a chapter on making clay, fun putty, and other homemake 'sticky stuff.' This delightful resource includes a wide variety of projects for artists of any age. All of the activities call for low-cost, environmentally safe materials. Grades 6 and up. |
