Shade and Trace Self Portrait
This was the first thing we did in art class. We took a selfie, or a photo of ourselves and then covered the back in graphite. We then traced the outlines of ourselves while having the graphite covered back on a blank piece of paper. This resulted in the outlines being printed on the blank piece of paper. We then shaded in the rest of our pictures. The other thing we did was take the same photo. However, this time when we made the outlines, we only used pen on the hard outlines in the photo instead of shading the picture in.

We did a short perspective activity in out first art books. We practiced drawing things while connected to 1 or two perspective points in order to help us learn how to distort a drawing's perspective.
