7th grade students worked with portraits today after dancing to review line vocabulary and then rotating around the room for our Portrait Party. Students drew their portraits using a blind contour method - which results in very abstract looking works.
We finished the activity by modifying one of the blind contour drawings onto a larger scale with black oil pastel. Tomorrow students will add color and value to their abstract portraits before finishing up and turning them into Moodle.
