For the 7th-grade painting project, students explored color and texture in a bold and expressive way. Each student began by drawing their own self-portrait onto acetate. They then applied acrylic paint to the reverse side, working in layers to build depth and vibrancy. Once the painting was complete, students created textured paste paper, using various tools and techniques to add visual interest and contrast to their work. Finally, they added finishing touches with Posca markers, enhancing details and bringing their self-portrait to life.

For our first project, 5th grade students created a self-portrait featuring sunglasses. They were introduced to proper facial proportion techniques for portraits and learned how to use line and shape to draw facial features such as the eyes, mouth, and nose. Afterwards, students applied their knowledge of these techniques to create a self-portrait based on a photograph of themselves. They used Sharpie, tempera sticks, colored pencils, and markers to complete their artwork. These portraits will be sent in to Square 1 Art!
