Third Grade Self Portraits

Concepts Covered:

- Element of Art Space (focus on creating depth in a work of art)
- Principle of Design Pattern (recreating the patterns seen on the bottom of their shoes)
- Warm vs. Cool Colors (shoes created in warm colors, clothing created in cool colors)

The students started by tracing their hands(at the top) and their feet (at the bottom).

To focus on the Principle of Design Pattern the students looked at the patterns on the bottom of their shoes  and they could draw the patterns they saw on the soles of their shoes or they could make up their own patterns.

Next came the fun part of demonstrating their wonderful knowledge of proper marker color technique and the differences between warm and cool colors combinations.
