Collage with Cut Paper Overlay

The video tutorial guides students through a collage project using cut paper overlays. Students start by drawing and shading a focal point, then use craft knives to cut out shapes. Adjustments are made as needed, and mistakes are corrected with tape. The overlay is completed and attached to another paper to create a collage using magazine images. The process emphasizes creativity and offers a break from traditional art techniques.
