How to do it


1. Choose an instrument (Saxophone, guitar, violin, piano, tuba, trumpet)….




2. Choose 2 sheets of colour paper; they should be two different colours.




3. Fold the papers in half vertically & draw half of the body of the guitar.



4. Cut out the shapes while they are still folded in half. Cut the body in half down the fold line so you have a total of 4 half guitar shapes.



5. With the same color halves facing the same direction (as in the picture above), use charcoal to color & smudge around the curved edge of the piece that will go in the back.

Next use white chalk/pastel to draw an outline only (don’t smudge) around the curved edge. Also on this front body draw a half circle & fill it in with black charcoal. On the next color paper, turn them over so they look like they would complete the body. Repeat the same instructions to the other color halves. 



6. Cut “necks” out of construction paper. Create textures, crimp the necks...


7. Glue the black edged body to the front body. Also glue the neck onto the bodies.



8. Ideas for the background:

SURREALISM


Dalí








Frida Khalo







Leonora Carrington





Surrealist objects

"Estos objetos (...) están basados en las fantasías y representaciones que pueden surgir cuando se realizan actos subconscientes. (...) Tienen una función simbólica y no dejan lugar alguno para las preocupaciones formales. Dependen sólo de la amorosa imaginación de cada persona, son extraplásticos", declaró Dalí en una publicación artística en 1931.

ABSTRACT SCULPTURE

He was one of the most important Spanish abstract sculptors in the 20th century. He experimented with traditional materials such as stone, and others such as concrete and iron. We explores geometric shaps like the cube, the sphere and the cylinder.
