EXPRESSIVE SELF PORTRAITS
The primary focus of this lesson is the expression of the face. In order to achieve a successful self portrait students will need to understand the proportions of the face as well as how to render each feature realistically. Students will begin by completing several pre-assessments before starting a large expressive self portrait.
