Seventh and eighth graders are also at a point artistically during which they are excited about and responsive to learning how to make their art look “real” or “life-like”. Throughout the course of this learning segment, students will explore self-portraits throughout history as well as acquire advanced drawing techniques in charcoal. After analyzing and discussing the idea of self-portraiture by selecting and reflecting on a self-portrait by an artist of their choice, students will create an upside-down self-portrait using charcoal, during which they will acquire new technical skills, develop their academic vocabularies, and explore their identities through image-making. (Upside-down drawings are a way of drawing during which artists familiarize themselves with the idea of drawing what they really see as opposed to what they think they see: during this project, students turn photos of themselves upside-down and draw their entire portraits upside-down.)
