Small pieces of coloured paper are torn, cut and stuck onto a white sheet. Where the pieces overlap, new shapes and colours appear.
In the picture
- A torn orange piece lying over a blue piece: the two layers overlap
- Round-tipped scissors: they cut paper into shapes
- A glue stick: it sticks the pieces down flat
Examples
