I had this idea to start creating cardboard sculpture into Non-Representational forms. We just got done doing Non-Representational Paintings with my 8th graders and this step just seemed to make sense. So, I created some myself first as examples. I loved it! I am having them create them using
5 different techniques with the cardboard
(negatives space, bottom layer exposure, score and feel to corrugation, add on a corrugated piece, add on a 3 layer piece).
Since the cardboard is usually brown, I am giving them construction paper crayons to add color and emphasis to the work. I am also encouraging them to outline all shapes, cutouts, and layers with black sharpie marker.

My first Paisley heart design |
 |
My second idea with more geometric shapes... |
 |
I decided to make this one a little more spiritual..
I added Bible Verses in the heart... |
 |
THis is the back of my Bible Verse heart. It was colorful and printed, but I decided to go with it as part of my design rather than leave it unworked on. I included Bible verses about how we should keep God's word in our hearts. I plan on making these hearts with my Art WIth a Purpose group afterschool... |
