Drawing

During our first month back at school we have been busy drawing! We drew self portraits and we think they turned out well!
First we examined our faces in a mirror or a recent photograph. It is important to look at the shape of your head.We asked ourselves some questions to help us –  Is your chin as wide as your forehead? How far apart are your eyes? Do you have a long/short/wide/narrow nose? What shape is your mouth? Do you have a fringe? Are your ears visible with your hairstyle?Once we had finished drawing we coloured in our self portraits using pastels. These can be tricky to use because they can smudge easily. We used our fingers to blend the colours. When our self portraits were finished we sprayed them with hairspray to stop the colour from smudging or fading.
We are very proud of our drawings, take a look and see!
