What canvas works best for folk art with different textures such as shingles and outdoor carpet?

What would make the best canvas for a folk art piece that will feature many different materials? Included in this creation will be shingles, outdoor carpet, and possibly other materials. I assume the different attachments will be applied with glue so what would make the best canvas? I have seen plywood used as a canvas in some folk art in a local gallery, but that seems a bit too primitive.

What kind of art projects can one do with empty video game boxes?

I have a lot of empty video game packages, because I cleaned my room and stuck all of my games in one of those binders. I **** to throw away piles of thin plastic boxes. Any ideas on recycling, maybe making an art project out of it or making it into something useful? I thought about taping them all together and making a big box or a little shelf, any other suggestions?

Art?

I have to do a reproduction and write a paper about my selection on Impressionalism.
I chose Paris on a Rainy Day by Callebotte. I was wondering what the painting could mean and the significance of it. How could I interpret it?
Here it is http://www.artyfactory.com/perspective_drawing/artworks/Gustave_Caillebotte/images/paris_street_1.jpg
Thanks so much!!! :)

My 13yr old daughter is great at art. She has entered several art contests through the schools and have won in all of them. Her art teachers and alot of other people have commented on how great she is and how she needs to pursue this further, but nobody can tell us how to do it. Does anyone have any ideas?

What should I do if an art judge accuses my child of plagiarism without proof?

My child entered an art contest with an anime style drawing and was accused of plagiarism as the judges were looking over the art. They have not produced the ‘original’ artwork they say my child copied and refuse to retract their statement of plagiarism.
It was in front of the others participating in the contest, and my child is 15 and was trying for a scolarship. I did not see them draw this paticular drawing, they were staying at their father’s when it was produced, but have seen them draw many like it.
