Portraits


Student looked at examples of portraits throughout history and discussed styles and techniques. They learned about the lay-out of the human face and the symmetry involved. They compared the visions of two great artist- Leonardo daVinci and Andy Warhol. Hands on projects included: oil pastel self portraits, Warhol inspired pop art Mona Lisa collages and "print" making portraits.
