Self portrait week 2

Google Classroom assignment Requirement- One photo of the face finished with pencil shading

Bonus - Use color pencils to finish the background with a theme: Who I am

Steps
2) Use an H or HB pencil

Where your portrait is missing, draw LIGHT, straight lines across: 

• Top of your forehead, 
• At your eyebrows,
• Bottom of eyes, 
• Bottom of the nose, 
• Top and bottom of the mouth,
• Bottom of the chin. 

3)Use an H or HB pencil. 

• Begin sketching the DARKEST parts that you see in your portrait. 

-Your hair

-Eyebrow and eye socket

-Around your nose

-Wrinkle on the cheek from smiling

• Use a tortillion to blend and smooth out these lines

4)Look how your picture is much darker than the white of the paper-graphite needs to be everywhere!

• Sketch lightly over other areas with an HB pencil.
• BLEND and DRAW over these areas with the tortillion.       

• Slowly build up the lines to create your features. 
• You may use a darker pencil after (2B and 4B)
• Use 6B last

5) Besides drawing you, we want to draw what makes you, you! 

• Fill the background with words, doodles, pictures and designs of what you like, what you believe in, and what makes you happy. (refer to your checklist you made)
• Use colored pencils to enhance your background (BUT leave your portrait in pencil!).
