Art is everywhere, and has always been everywhere. Art has been around for thousands of years, and everyday we see it and continue on our merry way. The task at hand is to create three (3) different collages of pictures and be able to explain what they have in common. - Create three (3) different collages of pictures - One must be by a specific artist, One done by time period, and one done by style or movement. - You must be able to speak about each collage and tell why you chose what you chose.
 * The Task**

As has already been stated art is everywhere and has always been everywhere. Art has been around for thousands and thousands of years and will continue to be around for many more thousands of years. It is present in our homes, at our schools, at the mall, and even in anicent civilizations.
 * The Background**

Our objective is to find out what art is, and what it means to us as an individual. We all have our different styles and tastes. Art has different styles and mediums. I would like for you to see that art is not just a picture of the Mona Lisa, but rather that art is what you can create. This is a project in which you can do what you like, as long as you follow the directions that were already given in the Task portion.

1. Using the links in the resources section, select a specific artist, period, and style. 2. Find pictures of the works and begin to assemble your idea of what your collage should look like. 3. As you are searching for the various works, also begin to assemble your speeches about each collage. 4. Steps four and five can be done in either order...Write out your speech, or ideas that you will need to be able to do your speech. 5. Assemble the collage.
 * The Process**

[|**Image Collections**]- This site has links to various other art sites. It will be of good use for finding images to use. [|ArtCyclopdeia]- This is my favorite of the links...you can search by artist or period or movement. [|Metropolitan Museum of Art]- This show art from thousands of years ago, and has a great timeline to show the advances in art.
 * The Resources**

It is my hope that you have enjoyed doing this project. I hope that it was fun and that you learned something that you might not have known about art. Were the links that I provided easy to use, and did they help you a great deal in completing the project? Is this something that was fun and sparked your interest?...Was it different that the normal projects that are given?
