Pretty soon, my students will be creating mixed media portraits using our art room iPads! In the past, we've created artwork using the app Faces iMake, however, we were always so pressed for time being that we only had a few iPads. In the interest of trying to give everyone a few minutes to create a collage portrait, students often felt rushed.
Now that we are fortunate enough to have a class set of iPads in our art room, students will be able to work on projects from week to week using their very own iPads.
They will start out using the Faces iMake app

and will select, size and arrange various objects to make a face.
Then, they will save their work and import the image into the Brushes app

Using our styluses, students will outline and paint new details over their collages. Be sure to visit our Artsonia Gallery to see these works of art when they are finished! http://www.artsonia.com/museum/gallery.asp?exhibit=602387#
