Used hardback book to work in, acrylic paint, paint brushes, water cup, paper towels. Optional additional materials such as magazines, glue, scissors, printed pictures, scrapbook paper, and similar they want to collage with.

Students will control what the subject matter is in their own artwork and I don't show anything that could be upsetting or above a G rating. Students may need access to tools such as scissors.

I will provide everything students need to reference, although access to Pinterest, YouTube, and similar can be helpful to get ideas.
