Self Portrait Metamorphosis: animal
Due: next week at the beginning of class
You are to choose your favorite animal. Be sure to choose one that
is fascinating, and which also has immediately recognizable visual
characteristics. You are to
make self-portrait as that
animal. Note: animal cartoons do not count (no Pikachu or Scooby-doo, for
example).
This project comes in two parts.
1. The first part involves you finding an image of your chosen
animal and making an accurate and precise drawing of that image so that it
fills a page in your sketchbook. You
may use any media appropriate.
2. The second part involves making a self-portrait as that animal using the first image as a point of
departure for the second (it must also fill a sketchbook page). You are to make it clear in your
drawing that the second drawing is you, while at the same time keeping it
recognizable as that animal.
To recap: make a drawing of an animal, and then make a drawing of
you as that animal.
Standards of craftsmanship will be very high for these last few
projects. Spend as much
time as appropriate for each drawing. Take
pride in your sketchbooks! They
will be a valuable asset to your transfer portfolios.
