SELF-PORTRAITS

Chuck Close painted portraits from photographs. His early work was called Photorealism. These images are 7 by 9 feet tall and are not to flatter the subjects. His later work became more abstract. His method of gridding the photo became the base and was meant to enlarge the faces by exact ratios. In each square became another "little painting".  
Inspired by this artist, students created a self-portrait and chose from Photorealism or abstraction.
Grids are an even ratio of 1:2. and students can decide how they want to shade or color in their faces.
