Nathan- Style Art
This was part one of a two-week process in which Nathan gave us a glimpse into his own artmaking process...







1. Start with a basic picture frame
2. Break the glass (optional)
3. Tape everything into place, minding the hooks on the back for hanging
4. Create a glue mixture (2/3 glue, less than 1/3 water), shake to mix
5. Using brushes, cover the frame in glue mixture, then in black and white printed materials (ie, newspaper), then cover in glue a second time
6. Allow to dry


Next Meeting: November 10th @ 5 pm in the VAC



"The Factory" is now on display in the student lounge (downstairs in the VAC)
