Collage Self-Portrait      
   Look at the portrait on Page 43 in The Art of Looking Sideways. Make a self portrait by cutting facial features from magazines. Paste them with glue stick to a sheet that is no smaller than 8.5"x 11". Fill the whole page—find colors to make a background.
     
Try to make your self portrait while looking in a mirror. Use photographs only as a last resort. Understand that your final image may be a distant approximation—may not look exactly like you. See if you can capture something essential to our visual recognition of you. You may incorporate symbols but only after you make the effort to create a likness.
     
These are due on Monday, June 4. Hang them on the bulletin board at the front of the studio when you get them completed so that others can see your progress.
