Selfie Self-Portraits

We have been learning more about color and we started our mini-art unit and today we made selfie self-portraits. Our tech savvy students took a selfie and then sketched themselves referring to the selfie photo. After the sketch was completed the students then used water colors to paint their self-portraits. Sketching and painting in the intricate facial area was a difficult fine motor task. The students tried very hard on this assignment and at the end of the day all the students thought we should do MORE painting!
