Tempera Portrait - Who Am I

  What do I think about?

What is important to me?

We know a self-portrait is a picture of what we look like. But there is so much more about us that is important! 

Can you create a self-portrait that also shows what is important to you?

Marc Chagall painted this self-portrait. He wanted to show some of the things that were important to him. 

What is he thinking about? Where did he place the things he was thinking about?

If you are going to create a self-portrait ask yourself these questions.

- Where will you place your head?

- What shape will you draw first?
