Food Collages in Art

Last week we looked at artists who either use food to make art or who paint or draw foods. We also looked at the Renaissance paintings of Giuseppe Arcimboldo who painted foods, mostly fruits and vegetables, to create these surrealistic paintings in the shape of human figures.

The 6th graders then set out  to create their own figures using only food images although they were allowed to use one real facial feature (eyes, nose or mouth). I think they are pretty cool.
