2nd Grade Art
Self portraits are such an important aspect of grade school. They show the skills of the student at each grade level. In second grade we draw contour line drawings of ourselves. This 2-dimensional portrait is drawn attempting to show action and movement. We use markers to color them in and try to capture realism in our skin tone. An added aspect of this project is to show shadow. By simply stapling a piece of black paper to the back of our self-portrait, we cut both pieces together and an instant shadow is created.
