- Catbells Autumn 1 Self Portraits
Self Portraits
The children explored mark making through different drawing materials. They are beginning to draw from observation using faces and self-portraits as a stimulus.
Objectives: To create a simple observational drawing
To use colour to create a self-portrait
The children looked in mirrors to help them remember all their facial features. They then used oil pastels to add colour, texture and form.
"I can see 2 nostrils"
"My lips are red!"
"I need to draw lines for my hair"
"I will shade my lips!"
"I have lots of eye lashes, eye lids can blink!"
