Assignment #13: Object

 

Self Portrait Metamorphosis: Object

 

Due: Next Week

 

You are to choose an interesting object. Be sure to choose one that  is fascinating, and which also has immediately recognizable visual characteristics.  You are to make self portrait as that object.

 

This project comes in two parts. 

1. The first part involves you making a drawing of your chosen object from life 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 object (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 object.

 

To recap: make a drawing of an object, and then make a drawing of you as that object.

 

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.
