Painting and mixed media - Portraits 

We have been developing our skills in creating interesting self-portrait drawings using words, experimenting with materials and techniques, and constructing self-portraits that represent aspects of ourselves.

We first started by sketching a continuous line drawing of ourselves using mirrors before then placing a piece of tracing paper on top and going over the lines with words that represent us as individuals. We then created our own watercolour backgrounds before combining both elements to create our own mixed media self-portraits.
