Hello Students! We miss you like crazy! We hope you are being safe and washing your hands with soap and water!

Found Object Plate Portraits
original lesson from youngschoolart@blogspot.com

 This is my cat Breyer posing with the found object portrait I made- Mrs. Junge

Back in December each one of you created a self-portrait, or a picture of yourself. 

For this project, we are going to make a portrait, the face of someone else! 

Here are the steps: 

1. Pick a plate- Could be a ceramic, plastic, or paper plate.

2. Collect some supplies from around your house, including small toys, kitchen items, craft supplies, office supplies, or foods. 

3. Identify parts of the face and sort objects into categories such as eyes, mouths, noses, etc. 

4. Create a portrait using the objects. Move items around to make different faces, have fun with it!

5. Put items back where they belong.
