Self-portraits

All of the artists at NHE have been working on self-portraits. The 1st grade and Kindergarten ones are finished and you can see some of them in person outside the Library or Art room. We began by drawing them and then traced over the drawing with black glue. We use black glue because it helps the features of their face stand out and also creates a physical barrier which helps a lot of young artists to stay within the lines. We finished the portraits by coloring the skin with crayons and painting the rest of the picture with watercolor paint.
