Year 5 Self Portrait Studies

Year 5 are exploring self portraits this term and spent a lesson drawing a detailed study in their sketchbooks using pencil. They were asked to focus on correct facial proportion and the different details of the face, such as eye lashes and freckles. The students are now embarking on their final pieces which will be painted in the style of the artist Chuck Close
