Materials

  • Plate

  • Recycled items

  • Food

  • Art, office, toolbox, or sewing supplies

  • Utensils, toys, yarn, any other small items - almost anything can work!

Instructions

  1. Find a plate or another large surface to be the head.

  2. Gather materials to create the eyes, nose, mouth, ears, eyebrows, hair or other parts of a face. 

  3. Arrange your materials into a face - your face, your friend’s face, a member of your family’s face, a monster face, an animal face! Make your face happy, sad, confused, angry, interested, bored, or excited. 

  4. Challenges: Make a face with: only food, only one color, only nature, only supplies that you can reach right now! 

  5. Share your face! Send a photo of your favorite face/s to: clarendoncasd@gmail.com.

cool fact

You just created “found object art!” Some of the world’s most influential artists, including Pablo Picasso and Marcel DuChamp, have used discarded items and re-shaped them to create cool, new ways to think about art. 

Thanks to artist & Clarendon art partner Cara Goldstein for the idea!
