Self-Portraits: • Use the grid method to draw your face • Apply the drawing techniques we have covered to create a life-like face with shading • Use the background to add in details which are expressive of you
Applying the Grid: • Grid off your photo using 1” by 1” squares • The grid must be done precisely to prevent distortion • Grid off your drawing paper using 1.5” by 1.5” squares • Draw the squares lightly to prevent waffling • Note that you will have left over squares, and will need to adjust accordingly • You must erase the grid before you begin shading
Use the grid system like a map; it is similar to graphing the slope of a line or a parabola in your math class. 1.5” x 1.5” grid Paper 1B 1” x 1” grid 1A 1C Photo 1A 1B 1C 2A 2A 3A 3A
