Kindergarten Self Portraits

Kindergarten artists have been learning about self portraits. We learned that a self portrait is an artwork featuring yourself and only you can do your self portrait. We began our self portrait drawings by thinking about the different parts of our body and how we can use different shapes to show them.

We used oil pastel, which we have been exploring this past month. Each student drew a full body self portrait, adding details to represent themselves as well as a background.
Here are some examples of our oil pastel self portraits:
Sophie, Kindergarten
Julia, Kindergarten
Dylon, Kindergarten
Perin, Kindergarten
David, Kindergarten
