Self Portraits Analogous / Complimentary color scheme
Schoo seventh graders started by photographing their self portraits and drawing a 1" grid over the picture. After drawing a 2" grid on a blank sheet of paper, students sketch their portraits, doubling the size of the photograph.
Once the contour lines (outlines) were drawn, students added value and color with oil pastels. Students used analogous and contrasting color combinations to add gradients to their portraits.
