MAKE YOUR OWN LASCAUX
Crumple up a brown paper bag to create "rock" texture of the cave walls.  Think about your primal urges...  What "rituals" do you have each day?  What is your daily life focused on?  What do you "worship"?
  • STYLE: NATURALISM + ABSTRACTION
  • Focus on CONTOURS (edges/outlines)
  • Create a TWISTED PERSPECTIVE (composite view) of something
  • Use charcoal and crushed ochre colored pastels as your pigments 
  • Paint in a darkened room using only (battery powered) candlelight to get to full effect of how the images would have flickered and moved on the walls in dim light!


MAKE YOUR OWN CLAY FIGURINE
Using a small baseball sized amount of clay, make your own "art mobilier."  Artwork of inspiration:  
  • Venus of Willendorf 
  • Tlatilco Figurines
