Graphic Arts, Fall 2009

Process:
1. Find a portrait in a magazine.
2. Lay tracing paper over the portrait.
3. Looking through magazines, newspapers, etc., cut out any letters, numbers, and symbols you can find to re-draw the portrait on the tracing paper.
4. With a new piece of tracing paper, trace your collage and transfer to illustration board.
5. Fill in your transfer with marker.
Purpose:
Typography is the backbone of graphic arts, the idea is for the students to see beyond the idea of numbers and letters as symbols, and to begin to see them as objects and shapes.
