1. Organizational moment.

Good afternoon guys! Hello, dear guests!

Today we have another creative lesson, or rather a master class.

Look at each other, hold hands, smile, wish each other a good mood and creative success... Are you ready?

2. Main part.

Tell me please, what time of year is it now?

Spring

Spring is the most joyful period of the year. Nature awakens from winter sleep. Everything is blooming and rejoicing. And it is no coincidence that the most rituals, ceremonies, and holidays occur at this time.

What about Christian ones? (Christmas, Epiphany, Trinity, Easter).

What Easter traditions do you know?

Bake Easter cakes, paint eggs

Right.When setting the festive table, housewives covered it with the most beautiful tablecloth; there were various dishes on it, but the main symbols of Easter were Easter cake and colored eggs. ButThere is another ancient Christian tradition - exchanging colored eggs as a sign of love and fraternal unity of believers. According to legend, Saint Mary Magdalene presented the first Easter egg to the Roman emperor. Soon after the resurrection of Christ, Mary Magdalene appeared in Rome. In those days, it was customary to bring gifts to the emperor when visiting the emperor. The wealthy brought jewelry, and the poor brought what they could. Therefore, Mary Magdalene, who had nothing but faith in Jesus, handed Emperor Tiberius a chicken egg with the words: “Christ is Risen!” The emperor, doubting what was said, noted that no one can rise from the dead and this is as difficult to believe as the fact that a white egg can turn red. Before he could finish these words, the egg began to turn from white to bright red. Painted eggs have always served as a symbol of the Resurrection of Jesus. Making elaborately decorated Easter eggs was both a tradition and an ancient craft in Russia. The eggs were covered with intricate symbolic patterns, and views of nature, genre scenes, temples and icons were also painted on them.

These are krashenka eggs, and drapanki, and speckled eggs, and malevankas, and, of course, pysanka.

But besides all this, eggs are also decorated using various materials: ribbons, beads, beads, and sequins. As I already told you, decorating eggs is an art. I suggest you decorate the egg.

3. Practical part.

But before we start making the Easter egg, let's review the safety rules when working with scissors and glue.

What do we need to work?

Egg

Cardboard

Scissors

Glue moment (transparent)

Satin ribbon 0.6 mm

Decorations

Let's get to work. See technical sheet.

4. Summary.

All the guys tried really hard, well done. I suggest you, following the Easter custom, exchange eggs.

Did you enjoy decorating eggs?

Do you like your friend's craft?

What do you remember from our lesson?

This concludes our lesson. Now let's decorate an impromptu Easter table with our eggs. Thank you for your participation, see you again!

Routing

Take the tape and glue it to the top of the egg (for 1 piece you need 3-4 meters of tape)

We begin to wrap our egg. Hold the workpiece tightly, it will slip out and pull the tape so that it fits tightly.

3. Having reached the top of the egg, we apply the ribbon with a cross and continue weaving further, on the back side we do the same.

4. This way we wrap the whole egg.

5. Having wrapped the entire egg, cut off the excess tape

6. And glue the end of the tape

Now you can show your imagination and decorate the eggs.

I decided not to do a standard master class, but to talk a little about a new, for most readers, direction of art - assemblage.

So, Assemblage is a composition that contains non-painting objects and materials. There are several types of this art, so among many famous creators of our time, you can find painted paintings with “living” elements or, more simply, “found”. For example, a portrait of a person with a key can be painted on canvas, but the key will be real and not written. Undoubtedly, such art belongs to POP ART and already has quite a few of its fans.

(a picture assembled from small plastic trash).

Another type of Assemblage is collage needlework; I think there is no need to explain such collage. The collage style is more common than others and is more popular than the previous type of assemblage. Such popularity is not an accident, since here you can use absolutely all “found” objects that can be perfectly combined in a single work, regardless of texture and materials. So, for example, the works presented below can be attributed to this technique. This work was taken from one of the popular sites. The photo shows a panel with metal parts, and the wide frame itself is made of buckwheat. First, all the parts are glued to the base, after which, using balloon paint (you can use regular paint, but then you need to shade it), the entire work is painted over with one color. The result is very interesting works.

Here is another option in the assemblage style. This is an ordinary plastic bucket from children's toys, onto which “found” parts were glued and covered with paint on top. Below is the most, in my opinion, successful creation in this style - a table lamp made from unnecessary children's toys. After connecting them, everything is covered with white paint and, with the appropriate interior, this will complement the decor very well. By the way, everyone has probably seen some objects that are decorated with pasta and painted on top - this is also an assemblage. By the way, in this style, paper parts specially made for some kind of panel can be used. Absolutely all materials are acceptable for this, without any restrictions, perhaps this is precisely its charm.

Decorating an apartment or private house is a responsible job that should be performed by an artist or designer. But the services of specialists are not cheap, so in order to save their money, many homeowners strive to bring beauty and comfort to their interior by manufacturing and installing various objects and paintings. You can make a wall panel with your own hands using various techniques, the most common of which is the assemblage technique. This technique can be used to make paintings or panels of any size and volume; the essence of the technique is to produce a copy of the main object and gluing it to a supporting platform, then the rest of the composition is assembled, and finishing painting is carried out. A wall panel in the assemblage style will perfectly emphasize the individuality of the interior and will attract attention with its unusual texture.

Types of decorative panels

There are various materials that can be used as the basis or decoration of a wall panel made with your own hands using the assemblage technique. Such items can be classified into several types:

1. A painting or panel on the wall using natural materials. In this case, various objects of plant origin are used, for example, tree branches, cereals or casts of fruits and berries. To create a panel from the listed materials, you will need artistic thinking or experience in painting, since before starting to assemble the painting you will need to draw a model of the future product on the basis, and not everyone can do this;
2. A three-dimensional assemblage of panels made from household items and industrial elements that have served their purpose. This technique is simpler, since all the materials are large and their use does not require painting skills; it is enough to roughly draw the arrangement of things on the panel or directly lay them out in the order in which they will be located in the final version. To create paintings, you can use glass or plastic bottles, buttons, fabric, paper, old watch parts or any other item you like that can be glued to the base. If the element has a round or cylindrical shape, and there is no way to securely fix it in the picture, or this requires a design solution, then you can make a copy of it using plaster or papier-mâché technique;
3. A combined product using both types of materials. In this case, the result is a composition that includes both objects of natural origin and products created by man.

The main advantage of decorative panels on walls is that such a product is not produced on an industrial scale and, most often, the resulting painting exists in a single copy, as a work of art. Also a plus is the ability to create a composition to suit the overall architectural ensemble of the room or building as a whole.

Panel sizes, filling options

As such, there are no specific strict standards regulating the dimensions of a three-dimensional panel; the product can be of any shape, length and width, the only condition is that it is necessary to take into account the weight of the entire structure and calculate the load on the adhesive composition so that after fixing the picture on the wall, its elements do not break off from the base . Large parts must be fixed over the entire plane using especially strong glue and fixing varnish.

You can often find a decorative panel with lighting; such a picture, in addition to its decorative function, is additionally a source of light in the room and, when the lighting is turned on, highlights a certain area on the wall and around it, which adds softness and sophistication to the entire interior.

Lighting can be placed outside the frame of the product or in the cavity of a figure, for example, a vase with holes. In this case, light will penetrate through them and illuminate certain areas. As a source, you can use incandescent lamps or LED strips, which have the advantage of not heating up and, therefore, will not create a high temperature inside the painting.

The volume of the painting, in addition to the texture itself, is given by its coloring, which can be done either in black or white, or in a combination of different colors and shades. For example, the most common combination is a bronze background with gilded towers; this technique is considered closer to the aristocratic style and fits well into an interior filled with natural materials, pure wood or stone.

When using the assemblage technique to create a picture for a children's room, it is better to use colored paints that will force the child to pay attention to the details of the panel and create a positive mood. You can often find a three-dimensional picture with a built-in clock of an unusual shape; for example, instead of classic numbers, there are old toys of different shapes, similar to one or another time indicator. Thus, it will be easier for the child to learn time zones, he will learn to tell time and navigate in space.

Options for placing objects on the panel

When planning any drawing, you need to accurately understand the size of the future structure and compare the scale with the main site. The assemblage technique itself uses non-standard solutions, when old things are used as a composition, which at first glance cannot be arranged in any kind of drawing. However, when composing the entire structure, a picture with a clear interior is formed. For example, if the panel depicts a fish, instead of an eye it may have an ordinary button, and its scales are made of coins. As a result, seemingly simple everyday objects take on a completely different meaning in the context of one picture.

Also, when using backlighting, you can position it in such a way that in the off position the pattern is of the same type, and when the lighting is turned on, due to the shadow effect, a completely different composition is formed on the opposite wall. In this case, beautiful panels can carry a hidden meaning contained in the drawing itself and the reflection of its shadow.

The process of making panels from wooden rings

The most widespread among decorative volumetric panels are paintings made from rings cut from tree trunks and dried branches.

This composition is easy to produce but, despite this, it looks like a complete composition with natural landscapes. This product must be manufactured according to the following algorithm:

1. Choosing the size and basis for the painting. As a platform, you can use a sheet of durable plywood or a polymer board; it is important to consider that the weight of the finished structure will not be small, so the size must correspond to the load on the surface;
2. Defining the concept of the drawing and the overall composition. Most often, they first select materials, examine their shape, what a particular branch looks like, and then imagine what kind of design can be recreated. For example, to imitate trees, ordinary branches, dried and sanded, are used;
3. The figure is laid out on the panel, round rings can be laid out as tree foliage, the trunk should be slightly thicker or of a comparable size. To maintain a three-dimensional pattern, the rings can be arranged in two or three layers;
4. A background is applied to the base, which can be used as ordinary paper, previously soaked in water. After the sheet becomes limp, it needs to be squeezed out and, smeared with glue, placed over the entire surface. You can form mounds and slides from the resulting mass; after drying, it will harden and gain texture;
5. Next, all the parts are lubricated one by one with an adhesive composition and placed on the panel in the planned order. The glue can be different, depending on the weight of the element, for example, PVA or a synthetic polymer-based tube, fused with a special gun. It is important to observe the solidification interval of the structure so that the parts do not “float” on the surface;
6. After all the parts have completely dried, it is necessary to paint the entire composition in one background color. As a base, you can choose black paint, which is applied in one or two layers until all elements of the picture become the same. You can paint using a spray gun, or manually with a simple brush, and the movements should be gentle to prevent the layers from overlapping each other;
7. The final stage will be coating the surface with furniture or car varnish on an acrylic or alkyd base. The varnish forms a transparent film that will protect the painting from exposure to ultraviolet radiation, as well as dirt and dust. After the structure has completely dried, the platform is installed in a wooden frame or baguette and can be hung in the planned location.

Thus, having examined the process of making panels on the wall using the assemblage technique, we can conclude that hand-made three-dimensional paintings will be an excellent addition to the interior of the apartment, and will also emphasize the individuality of the person living in it.

If you are not yet familiar with such a direction of needlework as assemblage, we advise you to learn about it in order to create unique works of art with your own hands.

We make panels using the assemblage technique

The term assemblage was coined in 1953 by Jean Dubuffet. He used it to designate works of man-made art, the elements of which were made from objects and fragments of natural materials. The artist Cesar pressed the material for his works. Sculptors Bill Woodrow and Tony Cragg made their works from found debris and objects.

You have a unique opportunity - to feel like artists, surrealist sculptors and make amazing three-dimensional paintings and jewelry from waste material. Start with a painting like this.

1. To make such a decorative panel, you need to glue a vase onto a sheet of plywood, put flowers inside, then pour plaster into it. You can paint the vase or not.
2. Cut out butterfly wings from cardboard and paint them. The body of these insects must be sculpted from salt dough, and the antennae must be made from wire.
3. Let the dough dry, then glue the butterfly onto the decorative panel.
4. Finally, this picture needs to be coated with furniture varnish using a brush or spray can.

You can decorate the panel with buttons, twine or beads. On this sample it was done in paper art style.

Make a picture like this or something similar, with some differences. See how to make a similar panel using the assemblage technique.

For creativity, take:

• plywood sheet;
• dry blades of grass;
• plastic flowers;
• half a ceramic pot;
• hacksaw for metal;
• rubber glue No. 88 or hot-melt gun;
• aerosol paint;
• alabaster or plaster;
• paper;
• acrylic gold plating;

Saw the ceramic vase in half lengthwise with a hacksaw.

The clay pot can be replaced with a thick plastic glass. You will cut it with a knife heated over the flame.

Let's start decorating the background. For this, the papier-mâché technique is used. Tear the paper into shreds, put it in water, wait until it becomes limp. After this, take out the pieces, squeeze them out with your hands, and place them on a towel to drain.

Generously grease a sheet of plywood with PVA, place scraps of soaked paper on it, giving them the desired shape.

You can decorate the pot by gluing a rope to it in the form of flowers, leaves, or a pattern. You can squeeze out rubber sealant using a construction gun and draw with it. But then the mass needs to be given time to dry.

To save time, glue flowers to the background and let all the blanks for the picture dry in the same amount of time.

Dilute alabaster or plaster with water and stir. Carefully pour the resulting solution into a vase and insert blades of grass with flowers into it, which will be in the foreground of the picture.

Let the panel dry thoroughly, then you can paint it. We do this using a spray can, and then, taking a piece of foam rubber, apply a layer of acrylic gold plating. That's it, you can hang the panel on the wall. It was created using the assemblage technique and skillful hands.

How to make a brooch using the assemblage technique?

Usually craftswomen have scraps of materials and beads left over, let's turn it all into a fashionable decoration. Here's what you need to get out of your stash:

• coarsely woven fabric;
• artificial flax fibers of golden color;
• glass and wooden beads;
• burlap (but not gray, but wheat-colored);
• glue web;
• needles with a wide eye;
• doublerin or calico;
• decorative elements;
• threads

First we make a rose from fabric. To do this, cut out a strip 4 cm wide and 30 cm long from the canvas, fold it in half lengthwise and twist it in the shape of a flower. To do this, first make 3-4 turns, and then bend the strip at an angle of 45° and make securing stitches.

Next, to create a brooch with your own hands, cut out a rectangle from burlap. Fluff the edges by pulling out the fibers around the edges. Fold the piece in half, moving the corners slightly.

To this burlap element you need to sew a fabric rose in a circle. After this, cut a triangle or strip along the bias from the main fabric.

Next, to decorate the brooch with your own hands using the assemblage technique, laying folds and at the same time rounding the blank. Sew it, stitch it to the bottom of the brooch. Now you need to decorate it with wooden beads. To do this, pull the burlap thread, take it out, and fold it in half. Thread a large needle through the eye and fold it in half to make 4 folds of thread. We put an oval bead on both ends and secure them with neat knots.

Sew this rope blank with a rose. You can decorate it with other elements.

After the front part is ready, take care of the back part. We sew calico here and attach doublerin or adhesive web. To ensure that the brooch has the required rigidity, lay a layer of top facing and padding polyester with large pieces of adhesive web.

We fasten the part made of duplerin or calico by bending the fabric, stitching it with a seam over the edge. We glue the frayed edges with cobwebs.

To attach the glue web, place a sheet of paper on it and iron it with a hot iron. Then remove the paper.

Attach the brooch clasp.

You can leave the brooch as is or give it a different color using aerosol paint.

DIY antique painting

Looking at the following painting, it seems that it hung on the wall of a castle during the era of the knights. You won’t immediately realize that this is not embossed bronze, but a panel, also made using the assemblage technique.

To create such a masterpiece, take:

• fiberboard sheet;
• salty dough;
• foam border;
• acrylic paints;
• plaster bandages;
• bottles;
• plate;
• foil;
• putty;
• acrylic lacquer;
• sandpaper;
• glue;
• fruits;
• To decorate the plate you need: semolina, shells, jute twine.

Wrap the bottles and plate separately in foil, wrap them in plaster bandages, after moistening them with water.

Apply a layer of about 5 mm of gypsum on top, only halfway on the bottles. Wait until the solution dries and remove prints from the base.

Putty the workpieces, let this layer dry.

Apply a design to the plate. To do this, while the putty is still damp, place jute twine on it, slightly pressing it into the solution. For a stronger connection, you can plant it on PVA. Break the shell, decorate the petals of the resulting flower with it, and the outer elements with semolina.

Apply putty to the fiberboard, attach a plate and decorated bottles.

When the putty is dry, sand the surface with fine sandpaper.

We “sculpt” the fruit halves using the same technology: first we wrap them in foil, but then we coat them not with plaster, but wrap them with salted dough, immediately sticking peppercorns.

Glue these elements to the picture.

Next, we mold smaller fruits from the salt dough - grapes, olives. We also make grape leaves from dough; you can cut them out yourself or use a template. We cover individual elements with gold acrylic paint, decorating the panel with it.

Now apply black acrylic paint to the picture; when it dries, also apply gold paint. This wonderful creation helped create an interesting direction called assemblage.

How to make a clock and a sign using the assemblage technique?

We will make the watch using the same assemblage technique. See how original the product turns out to be.

Here are the materials and tools you will need for this:

• plywood;
• ruler;
• saw;
• pencils;
• brushes;
• glue;
• nails;
• bolts;
• numbers and their designations;
• clockwork;
• drill;
• colored cardboard;
• protractor.

You can select numbers from 1 to 12 from the most unexpected materials. For example, instead of a five, use a glove with 5 fingers, and instead of 10, use a ten-ruble coin. And some numbers can replace signs with apartment numbers and dominoes.

Take the clock mechanism.

Paint the plywood and let it dry.

Mark the location of the numbers, glue a triangle of colored cardboard next to each one, or mark these areas with paint.

When dry, stick on the numbers.

To make the coating more durable, you can paint the watch with varnish.

To make a sign for the toilet and bath using the same technique, you will need:

• base for signs;
• primer;
• texture paste;
• sheet of thick wallpaper;
• putty knife;
• toothpick;
• sandpaper;
• acrylic: varnish, contour, paint.

First you need to draw a sketch. You can use what is proposed by attaching the sheet to the monitor screen.

Enlarge the drawing so that it matches the size of your plywood blank.

Cut out the patterns, attach them to the base, outline them to mark the location.

To make the drawing three-dimensional, we will make a stencil from thick wallpaper.

Apply a pattern to the wallpaper along the contour of the pattern, cut it out - you will get a stencil. Fill the resulting holes using a spatula and texture paste.

Carefully remove this stencil. Take a toothpick in your hands and draw the missing lines and elements in the picture.

When the paste is dry, lightly go over the pattern with sandpaper. To give it color, tint with acrylic paint diluted with water using a sponge. Apply a darker tone to the indentations. Remove excess paint with a napkin.

Subject: Master class with parents and children. Decorative panel “Scarlet Sails” using assemblage technique.

Target: expand parents' knowledge about the use of non-traditional techniques in children's visual arts.

Tasks:

To convey to parents the importance of using methods of non-traditional visual techniques in the development of imaginative thinking, sensory perception, and creativity of children;

Develop communicative forms of behavior that promote self-actualization and self-affirmation;

Location: primary school classroom

Equipment: 6 tables, 16 chairs, for each individual group - materials for making decorative panels (PVA glue; brushes; photo frame; Titan glue; sand, putty, acrylic paint; color (gouache); cereals (millet, rice ): scissors; plastic bottle and box; varnish; plastic spoon for preparing the solution; picture from the Internet:; sandpaper; twine)

Progress of the master class

Hello, dear guests, parents and children! I want to tell you a little story, listen carefully. There lived a lonely and proud man. He loved the sea, dreams and people. The sea lay before him like a road to a beautiful, mysterious world, full of adventures, exploits and miracles. The name of this person is the writer Alexander Green. At the age of 18, his dream of distant countries brought him to Odessa. Here he first led away the sea, the sea that later flooded the borders of his books with a dazzling light.

Reader. He lived among us, this strange storyteller,

Created a country where the shore is foggy

From the famous brigs they flee at dawn

Tall people with a deceptive smile,

With eyes like the echo of the seas in January,

With great anger, with great love

With blood as salty as the sea, raging,

With an eternal dream of goodness, like the sun.

We are talking about the famous writer Alexander Greene. Who knows what work he wrote? (answers from master class participants)

What do you think we will do today? (something to do with scarlet sails)

That's right, these will be Scarlet Sails - a symbol of hope and true dreams.

Together we will make a decorative panel using the assemblage technique. Have you ever heard of this technique? This is a type of work of modern art, or an artifact, which is a three-dimensional composition made up of any utilitarian objects or their parts and fragments and/or specially created objects and enclosed in the space of a box or box.

Why will we do this work? (so that each of us understands the importance of introducing new non-traditional techniques into the visual arts of our children).

Right. What do you think the Scarlet Sails represent? (hope, faith, dream)

Everyone has their own dream. What do people dream about? (answers)

So let each of us put a drop of dream into these Scarlet Sails. We will not just create a three-dimensional composition with you, we will make your common dream come true.

So, a master class on making a decorative panel “Scarlet Sails” using the assemblage technique.

(Working with slides)

This is what the finished work looks like, in order for it to turn out just as beautiful and neat, we need to act coherently.

It’s not just that I immediately divided you into groups; each group will be responsible for its part of the work.

For work we will need: PVA glue; brushes; picture frame; glue "Titan"; sand, putty, acrylic paint; color (gouache); cereals (millet, rice): scissors; plastic bottle and box; varnish; plastic spoon for preparing the solution; picture from the Internet:; skin; leg-split. You will see everything we will use as we work.
The first group prepares sails and a boat hull from a plastic bottle and box. On the table you will find templates according to which you need to cut out the parts. You also make the masts and network. There are hints on the table, you can use them. Every step is described in detail there.

The second group is preparing the background for our future panel. Everyone will find instructions and materials on their desk.

The third group has the most important task: we will assemble the composition. For this purpose, I specially printed the drawing. We cover it with glass and will work directly on the glass. We design the sailboat starting from the far mast. All elements are glued onto "Titanium" (directly onto the glass). We design the bottom part of the work. Glue the rice. Next we paint the sails and the hull of the sailboat. We use acrylic paint. We varnish the sailboat. Prepare a mixture of sand, putty and PVA glue and cover all the rice. Let it dry a little.

Now it's time to replace the background. Our decorative panel using the assemblage technique is ready. I hope that each of you let a little soul into this picture. Now this panel will delight you, your children, and guests, taking its rightful place in our school.

I propose to summarize our master class. What was the most important, in your opinion? Maybe there were difficulties somewhere? What did you find easiest? There are palms in front of you, they were made by your children. Choose the one that suits your mood. If you liked everything, it was interesting and you will come to such an event again - choose a green palm; if it was difficult, but in principle you liked it - yellow; if you didn’t like it and you didn’t understand anything - red. Now let’s take each magnet and make our tree. If you have any wishes or want to speak out, you can do so right now. Thank you for participating! We will be glad to see you again!
