Frida - Inspired Self-Portraits 

Do Now: Invent a new sea creature. What does it look like? What is it called?

During today's class the 3rd and 4th graders continued their study of Frida Kahlo, though rather than paint pictures of her, they began to start self-portraits. These portraits will be in the same style as Frida Kahlo, so they will show each student from the shoulders up, looking at the viewer, in front of a colorful background. Frida often painted herself with her pets, and students were encouraged to include animals in their self-portraits.

We started sketching today and will begin to paint next class!
