Oil Pastel Self Portraits- 4th Grade

We are learning how to draw our portraits with good proportion of eyes, mouth, nose, etc. We used two sided mirrors to view our eye and nose shapes.

Adding our hairline, bangs and ears.

The next class we tested different colors to make our skin color. We added shading and cheek color on top of the base color.

Then we decided our hair colors, and eye colors.

Each student chose a background and color theme to use.

We used oil pastels for the medium. We learned how to blend the colors in the face and hair.
