5th Grade Self Portraits

5th grade learned different styles of portraiture, including:  Realistic, Abstract, Modigliani, and Anime/Cartoon/Caricature. Students chose their own style and created a drawing of a self-portrait. They were asked to choose any "drawing" material, such as: colored pencil, oil pastel, crayon, charcoal, and and chalk. We touched on the basic placement of features, simple ways to draw features, and incorporating shading. They created their own background and boy, do they look A LOT like them.
