For the past few weeks we have been making portrait art. For this task we had to get a picture of ourselfs taken and then put it behind a laminat sheet, then outline the picture witha sharp pointed vivid or sharpie, sharpie is best. After that, take the picture out from under neath the laminating sheet and flip it over, and start mixing the paint colours to match your face. Then when you've done start painting you're face, neck and ears. Then make the colours of you're shirt, and paint that. Then make the colour of your hair, paint your hair, then make the colour of your eyes, then your lips, and finally,once ypur dry, put a sheet of coloured paper behind you and your done. I enjoyed painting my self and chosing the colour of my background. I found it difficult to mix the colours and make my face, and eyes. In the end the skin that I created eneded up looking a bit sun burnt. If you want make portrait art, be warned, some bit's are harder than others, espeically the skin. I ended up with the inside of my mouth blue, and part of my eyebrow blue as well, because the back ground that I had choose was blue, and buy the time I was done there had been bits that I had for gotten about. We were learning how to blend paint to match our skin, or our hair.
