First step: • DRAWING! • You will spend 4 class periods developing a doodleon the recycled file folder provided to you. • You should use the “blind contour” drawings as a starting point. • The finished work will be in pen/sharpie/marker • Some of the areas should be extremely detailed, other areas can be more spread out • Allow your mind to wander. Write, draw, scribble while you are thinking. • Use textures, lines and line weights to create interest.
Abstract Recognizable forms that have been changed from reality
Second Step: • “Deconstruct” your doodle to choose the best parts for your composition. • Cut & tear it apart • You can always make more drawings to add a • You can add photocopies, newspaper, fabric etc
Third Step • Re-assemble your selected doodle pieces into a Pop-Up/Diorama • Create a 3-D “scene” that is strange, beautiful & personal that incorporates 4+ “levels” • Other materials: cardstock, glue, markers, oil pastel, watercolor paint, ink pens.
Collage: design created by attaching mostly flat elements to a surface.

Pop Up Page/Book: a 3-D structure rises up when a page is opened
You’ll be graded on: • 3-D Composition: • “Emphasizing” an area in your Pop Up Page • Use “negative space” (everything shouldn’t be jumbled together. Free space to breathe.) • EDIT. Please don’t use EVERYTHING. • Overlapping Shapes • Creativity of imagery/doodle • Craftsmanship: how well it’s made • Participation/Cooperation: Daily progress
Now • Put your booklet aside (turn it in at the end of class) • Get scissors and paper. • Our first pop up page practice…
