Self-Portraits this week!

So I mentioned this in class, but here's a reminder.  This week we are starting to work on our self portraits.  We will work from a mirror (no photos), and you must do your best to paint what you see--for the figure anyway.  The minimum size is 16 x 20, and of course you must have prepared it yourself.  We will work on your painting in class for the next three class periods, but after that you must finish it on your own so they will be finished by final critique.

Be thinking about how you want to project yourself to the world.  What will you be wearing?  Any props?  What background will you include?  Make it interesting!  Also, what painting approach will you use?  Which makes the most sense to you?

See you Wednesday!
