Now that we have done portraits with pencil, Let's try something new.  Using magazines, newspaper,  cardboard, cereal boxes, discarded food wrappers or any scrap paper create a portrait.  There are many approaches to this technique.  You may try the grid method, but proportions are not the focus on this project.  You may even try to do a pet portrait.   If paper and glue are not available, try creating a portrait with extreme use of color versus our neutral color scheme of the previous portrait.      Email me your progress if you would like!

1-Start with a line drawing of the face outline.
2-Draw in neck and shoulders
3-Draw in the facial features
4-Draw in the hair
5-Look for paper in the color of desired areas

Using the skills we practiced to draw your self portraits, draw someone in your family.  Focus on just the face and shoulders only.  Add patterns, texture and vale to the background.

Look at all of these beautiful, inspiring portraits that we completed before spring break! Using the same techniques draw a portrait of a family member or even a pet! Use value, blending and shading. For the background, try adding color this time!
