Giuseppe Arcimboldo

Today, I completed the Giuseppe Arcimboldo task on the SLJ website. This task was all about creating a collage of fruit and vegetables. To create my collage I used old magazines and newspapers lying around at home. I went through just about every magazine we own at home and cut out every picture of fruit and vegetable, along with words related to fruit and veges. I managed to fill up a whole page. Here's what the final product looks like...


I also made another collage or art piece, the second picture I created digitally online. I made an animal out of 2 cabbage leaves (for ears), a kiwi fruit for eyes), a carrot (for the nose), a chilli (for the smile), an eggplant (for the neck), and orange (for the body), and corn for the legs. 
I hope you like it and here it is... 
Comment below what you favourite fruit or vegetable is!

    My name is Zana and I am a blog commenter from the Summer Learning Journey.

    I think you introduced and explained the activity well and it is great that you mentioned Giuseppe and his art. I think that he was a very creative thinker and he had an awesome impact on the art scene.

    I think your fruit and veg art collage looks awesome and I can see how much effort you put into it, great job. I believe the activity wanted you to create a sort of portrait. You could use the apple as the head, a banana for a smile and some grapes for eyes. Something like that.

    Happy Holidays, Keep up the great work and I hope to see more of your posts over the summer.

    Ngā mihi nui,
