Art Xmas Collage ideas using 3 powerpoints 12 Days of Xmas and Aminah Robinson’s mixed media collage

3 Resources
Attached are three powerpoints for developing a KS3 Collage in Fabric on the 12 Days of Xmas and the artist Aminah Robinson. ​ Students use the ‘resources’ powerpoint to draw ideas to make up their own design for the 12 days of Xmas.     Class divided and each child gets a different day to design.     I used Black velvet fabric as my backing fabric and each time the student did their drawing I traced this onto different coloured fabric shapes and students then cut this out and pritt sticked this onto the black velvet fabric.     There are three powerpoint lessons attached - first is the resources for designing day of the song.     Second is the Artist interpretation and learning about different fabric artists.     Thirdly, students then cut their designs out in fabric - I used transfer receipt like paper so students could trace onto the fabric and then cut out.     Finally students then embellish their fabric with different stitches and I have a powerpoint with video links on how to do the different stitches: running stitch, blanket stitch, satin stitch, chain stitch and daisy stitch…

(1)

You will need to as a teacher to resource the following for students: Year 7 Thick rope tied up, Year 8 Piece of fabric square with a peg or/and ribbon or a paintbrush to replace peg, Year 9 Xmas baubels or large spoons that have a reflection. This did not cost too much to put together for a yearly assessment. Year 7: Rope drawing - looking at the ability to create volume with tone and then to add in the pattern lines of the rope texture with the volume effect. Some students are able to capture good line patterns showing good design skills and line qualities. More able students are able to capture the volume. Year 8: Peg/large paintbrush and Fabric drawing - This is an exercise in capturing the volume, pattern and shading and accurate perspective drawing of the peg. Some students are able to show this more accurately and can show good tonal variations and the illusion of the 3D form in the peg and the brush. The lovely use of colour in the fabric supports students with strong design skills and pattern Year 9: Self identity drawing a portrait in a spoon or a bauble supports a theme on Self identity in year 9 and students can re-fine their skills in drawing themselves carefully in a bauble. Looking at volume and accurate tonal shading to draw a sphere with the distorted self portrait. Students enjoy capturing themselves having learnt about portrait drawing they can begin to excel in trying to create an illusion of themselves.
