SELF PORTAIT ASSIGNMENT
Inspirattion:
Most of Frida Kahlo’s works are self-portraits. In many of them, she surrounds herself with things that were important to her. You will find some of the following in her paintings: flowers, plants, animals, costumes, jewelry, idols, ancient gods, loved ones.
Instructions:
At home, draw or paint a self portrait. Use a mirror or a photograph of yourself. In the portrait, include things that are important to you.
You may use any media you like (pencil, charcoal, paint or collage, etc…).
You can do your self portrait in your journal (it can be small) or on another piece of paper (or it can be larger).
Bring to class ready to share and scan.
