 FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
1. CREATE A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION SHOWCASING THE ARTWORKS OFA COLLAGE BYARTISTS.
FROM THESE ARTWORKS, IDENTIFY THE FOLLOWING:
THE ELEMENTS.
THE MAIN PRINCIPLE.
2. CHOOSE TWO OF THE ARTIST’S ARTWORKS (COLLAGE) AND EXPLAIN HOW HE OR SHE USED TEXTURE IN
BOTH. IN YOUR EXPLANATION, STATE HOW THOSE TEXTURES WERE USED TO ACHIEVE A TWO-DIMENSIONAL
OR THREE-DIMENSIONAL QUALITY.
3. SELECTING ONE OF THE TWO ARTWORKS AND EXPLAIN HOW THE ARTIST USED THE ELEMENTS TO
DEVELOP THE MAIN PRINCIPLE OBSERVED IN QUESTION 1 ABOVE.
Artist: English Bulldog
Collage - Michel Keck

In both Collages Texture can be seen used in both images. Texture is the feel, appurtenance or consistency of a surface.
In Image 1, Texture is shown as smooth and the patterns are flat two-dimensional designs, like cutouts. Most of the
shapes are one solid color, but some have been painted to show texture.

In Image 2, texture is drawn as rough and smooth in both black and white and colored area that creates a pattern. This
image is also of a two-dimensional quality because it does not have any significant depth and is on a plain surface and
has basic shape while three-dimensional requires rotation and visualization from multiple perspective.
The main elements used by the
Artist which is Henri Matisse are;
Colour, Shape and Texture. Yellow
is the color of the background.
Greens and blues, bright yellows
and pinks, and dark purples, black
and white contrast with each other.
The main Principle that I would say
was shown is Pattern, which are
made from repeated shapes. The
repetition of the background
rectangles creates the pattern that
unifies the whole composition. The
curling lines in different colors are
another repeated pattern. The spiny
animals, the branching coral, and
the spirals are patterns that are
repeated and echoed.
