Kindergarten - Self Portraits


Our Kindergarten artists have been working very hard to learn how to draw faces. They have learned that pictures with faces in them are called "portraits" and portraits you draw of yourself are called "self-portraits". First, the students practiced drawing the facial features in the correct place on the faces. Then, the kids used their newly acquired skills to create oil pastel self portraits. Finally, each student created a name card in block letters to hang below their self-portrait. The children's interpretations of themselves were both introspective and exciting!
