Next, came the sketching. I showed students how to make a face by estimating the size of their palm for scale. From their we added a hat, neck, bandana, shoulders, and all the details of the face and clothing. Students then used their sketch to transfer their self-portraits to a larger version. Once complete, we "aged" the paper by using diluted brown paint to either spray or smear across the paper. Students really enjoyed this process.
The next few lessons was devoted to painting the face, followed by hat and hair, then clothing. Students mixed their skin tones using tan, brown and white. I then provided them with various colors for their clothing.
