Photo Texture Collage

Magazines with big glossy photos are best for this project. Landscape, travel and food magazines will generally get you the largest and prettiest images.
1. Pass out black construction paper and several magazines for each student. Instruct that they are to cut out as many images of texture as they can (i.e. grass, fabric, water, sky, etc.) Those cuttings will then be turned into a landscape collage.
2. Request that each student start with large squares and rectangles for the buildings, and then cut and glue smaller details such as windows and doors.
3. Lastly, landscaping and sky details may be added. Encourage unusual combinations.

I really like this idea. Collages are so much fun.
