Alternative Finals Line Design with Shading
Supplies All you need is • paper • Sharpie • colored pencils Start by drawing a curve line across the paper. Think rolling hill...not roller coaster!
Add 8 dots across the line. They could be (should be) at different lengths apart. You need a dot at relatively close to the edges of your paper.
You will then start connecting the dots. The dots close to the edge will go off the edge of the paper to an imaginary dot. You cannot cross over any lines. However, you can share a line as you begin going up and out. The lines should be taken off the edge of the paper as you extend outwards. Some sections may be pinched off as other sections grow larger...and that is totally ok.

Tips from the artistOn Sunday I had the pleasure of speaking with Moses the artist whose work you will see here these are some of the ideas he gave me. • Start by just putting a paper bag on your head till you find one that fits (I don’t have many sizes so you may need to bring some in. • If no bag fits try making darts in a larger bag till you can get it to fit. • Use clips to hold pieces together while gluing • Use your surroundings to help give you ideas • Think texture as well as shape and form
Moses made over two hundred and fifty hats simply by twisting, folding, piercing and gluing together brown paper bags.
Moses says he "feels like the luckiest guy in the world" because he was given "The Paper Bag Hat Assignment."
He can't explain why, but throughout the 1980s he was obsessed with paper bag hats.
He saw designs in trees and in mountains. Some are quite simple — just a bag cleverly folded and shaped into a head covering.
The rays of Sun Rook were made from at least 100 paper bags, which were twisted tightly, bent in half and glued onto a form, so that more than 200 points bristle from its crown.
Others, like Anthurium and Gothic Knight, rely on the bag's crisp texture to hold intricate pleats.
To achieve the soft texture of Beethoven and Dahling, bags were twisted and crumpled repeatedly until the fibers just gave up and the paper became like flannel.
