Collagraph Printmaking
In this 8-lesson unit, students looked at a variety of works of art created by American artists with disabilities that show a range of approaches to portraiture and the figure. Students then created a full body collagraph print of a person they admire that conveys their individuality through pose, facial expression, and details.
Artists can use collage techniques to create collagraph prints of someone they admire.
