Create one-of-a-kind artwork this week as we combine a little bit of everything related to art making to design pieces with one or more mediums or materials. Explore texture using various materials, including drawings, painted textured paper, and recycled materials. We'll also experiment with stamping and metal tooling, or "repousse," to create low-relief sculptures on metal.
