Students for this assignment were asked to create a self portrait for this piece. Students learned about portrait artist Chuck Close and his amazing photorealism portrait work. Students worked with proportion, value, and different drawing techniques. Students also learned how to work with the grid technique to draw an image. This tool could be used in their final draft or could be something that they just added to their artist tool kit. Student were asked to create an innovative grid through their subject. In each square of the grid they were to use a different drawing technique that was introduced in class. Students were encourage to split their picture up into at least 6 sections first. Students were to choose between 6-10 different techniques. Before getting started they were to come up with a rough draft of their ideas. Here are some examples of what 4th and 5th grade students came up with.
