This is a fun way to use a view finder and create an effective collage. A viewfinder is a simple square or rectangle cut out of card that you can look through. Using a viewfinder helps you to focus on something and not get distracted by what's around it. It will help you pay close attention to the image that you are trying to create. A collage is a picture made from small pieces of paper.

Choose any view you like for your collage. You can choose a person, an animal, a building, an object or just a view.

• Find somewhere, either indoors or outside, where you think you will find a view you want to turn into a collage.
• Use your viewfinder to look around you at different views and choose the one you want to work with.
• Make a light pencil sketch of your view but only use outlines, you don't need detail.
• Now add colour to your sketch by using the torn scraps of paper to build up the picture you want to create within your pencil lines.
