Self Portrait Project
We start with learning to do blind contour drawings of hands and faces.
All students do a contour drawing of a partner (not a blind one!). Here is the rubric, with requirements.
Technique – Did you use the contour drawing technique correctly: one continuous line that describes you model and NO SYMBOLS!!
Detail – Did you look CAREFULLY and include lots of details of the face, eyes, nose, lips, hair, neck and shoulders?
Effort - Did you draw SLOWLY and invest lots of time and effort?
Resemblance: Does your drawing look like your model?
Completion – Did you sign and date your drawing in the lower right corner and include the name of your model in “quotes”?
We continue with an ISOMORPHIC drawing
For the eyes, watch this video about shading eyes. See all the details on an eye!
