Self-Portrait 5th grade

Students were tasked with drawing a self-portrait using a black oil pastel and a mirror! Knowing they wouldn't be able to erase they, every mark mattered!  The next layer included more oil pastel colors and watercolor paint. The last layer included collage with cut paper. Before beginning the students wrote down 4 words in their sketchbook that best described them. While working they were asked to think of one of their words while working. Some students chose to include their word in their work. The results are REMARKABLE!
