Brrrrrrrrr.......It is Snowy Self-Portrait Time!

Allie's self-portait

Mina's self-portrait


2nd and 3rd grade students learned about self-portraits.  A self-portrait is when an artist paints or draws a picture of themselves.  Students looked at a variety of examples of self-portraits created by different artists such as; Vincent Van Gogh, Grant Wood, and Chuck Close.  It was the perfect time of year to create a picture of ourselves outside in the snow!  We used a collage method to do a winter background.  Look at these wonderful examples done by Mina and Allie!
