Of course, I won’t be checking your work to see if your Cubist creation meets a litmus test, but do try to keep these suggestions in mind.

That still leaves a lot of open territory to consider what you want to do, but don’t just sit there and debate what Cubism is, just get going by making something!

This project, like many others in this book, can be a two-dimensional composition, a mixed-media work or constructed with three-dimensional materials.

Rather than using the standard newspaper and magazine cutouts to collage, I recommend that you take apart some of your own old drawings, paintings and photographs and recombine them into abstract images. The obvious reason is that your own work is more personally connected than pieces created by someone else.

The best resource for images to use for this project are artworks you’ve made that were either unfinished or discarded because you didn’t like them. Once you’ve located several of your own compositions that you’re willing to sacrifice for this project, start cutting or tearing up the images and make a pile of the ones that look most interesting.
