Distortion

Season 16, Episode 12 of 13

Today's word of the day is distortion. This is when we take one aspect of something and change it or make it different - usually not the normal way we might look at something. Our first examples are abstract portraits using magazines. Then, create a fun house mirror using tiles. Our art journal technique uses plastic wrap with water colors to create unusual distorted backgrounds. Last, use reverse shape cutouts to make unique art works.
