This week we will start the PSA project using a famous artist’s style or work as the inspiration for your PSA. The attached link has information about the PSA. You have done the artist background information. Read through the PSA website information in the google presentations and do some research on one of the topics below that you will be creating the PSA for. These projects will be posted around school for your peers (that’s your audience). It can be a poster board size (you will provide) or it can be a sculpture using recycled materials, paint, markers, oil pastels, as your medium.
