Glue and Pastel Self-Portraits



Students from 3A, 3B, 3C, and 3D made these gorgeous self-portraits using pencil, glue, and pastels. Upon listening to the book Two Eyes, A Nose, and a Mouth by, Roberta Intrater, they made a list of key features to include in their portrait. They drew their faces with pencil and then outlined the drawing in glue. Once dried, this made a raised boarder to help make definition for the face. Students then colored in their pictures with pastels and dabbled with blending techniques.

AWESOME JOB 3RD GRADERS!!!

Steady hands!

Paying close attention to the details.
