Pop Art Self Portraits- Roy Lichtenstein Inspired olivia I originally found this lesson on Pinterest through https://www.flickr.com/photos/22303677@N06/5760279901/in/photostream website. You can pretty much do this project with any grade level. We used acrylic on bristol board and used projectors to blow up images taken of each student. emma Jason willa Alana Melanie Amadou Molly kassandra nilan sam p silvia clea loren Samantha P Melissa Kiana

The return of the lego self portraits. You've probably seen these/my face floating around Pinterest (or at least I'm told by my fellow colleagues that my face is plastered on Pinterest). The original project I did last year brought some major traffic to my blog. I think part of the reason, along with the fact that legos are just awesome, was that shortly after I posted the project The Lego Movie came out and Lego Mania was upon us. This is probably one of my all time favorite lessons. We cover a lot of information and it is fun, the kids love it and all find some sort of success! The majority of this lesson is done with crayon, a few students did choose to use marker on the background. To see a more detailed description of the lesson go here. I'm amazed as to how much I can see the resemblances in some of the portraits and I can pick out which lego belongs to each student.

There are so many ways to teach Picasso portraits, I'm working with 3rd grade so I wanted to keep it simple. I'll show them some of Picasso's Portraits and then go into the project - demonstrating each step. I'm going to ask them to create diagonal folds, not even folds that create squares on their page, but more random folds. They should make about 5 folds and then using a ruler go over the fold lines with a sharpie. Looking at the lines on their page and turning it around from different sides they should see the suggestion of a face and they can begin sketching. I'm going to show them how to use the lines to begin the eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, chin etc... When they have a face they like they should go over it with sharpie. Now they can use watercolor to finish the portrait. I am going to emphasize complementary colors which is another way to force them to be more abstract, but also something Picasso did in his paintings. Student Work I passed out a copy of this worksheet to help them think of different ways to make the features.

Fourth graders made these neat Heather Galler self-portraits. We learned about Etsy, a website were artists can sell their artwork and keep a better percentage of the profits than selling some of the same art in an art gallery. Buying art on Etsy is a great way to support artists directly. Here is Heather Galler's popular Etsy page! We talked about the characteristics and subject matter that Galler uses. Here is some of her art: In order to create our own Galler style self-portraits, we first traced the outlines of our facial features onto a photograph with colored pencil. We talked about more realistic ways to draw facial features. Next, we sharpied the outlines onto a plastic transparency. Finally, students were encouraged to color their artwork in the style of Galler including many colors and shapes. Students used a color scheme of warm colors and cool colors. In order to create contrast, students planned were to put groups of warm or cool colors. Enjoy! Goals: I can... - Explain what Etsy is - Tell about Heather Galler's artwork - Create a self-portrait in the style of Heather Galler - Explain what a self-portrait is

Middle School students will love this pop art lesson that focuses on the principle of movement. It also makes a great abstract portrait that is frame-able!
Innovative creativity from PaperArtsy. Paint, stencils, and techniques galore for any mixed media enthusiast to enjoy.
In 2008, I developed a self-portrait art lesson to help students express both their inner and outer selves, combining drawing, collage, and typography. I recently updated the project to include techniques like mixing skin tones, understanding facial proportions, and depicting diverse hair textures. This refreshed lesson not only enhances students' artistic skills but also encourages self-expression and identity exploration; find the full lesson plan on my website or TpT store.

--A Remote Learning Art Lesson-This art lesson was one of many that was taught online, via Zoom, during the pandemic. We were not able to meet in person but art classes continued virtually. The original art lesson was posted on the SeaSaw platform where students could access the materials including handouts and links during the week. During the pandemic I found that open ended art assignments worked very well especially because students were using whatever art supplies they had access to. I woul
