Art 2 and AP Studio students spent a few days drawing each other and then drawing themselves looking in mirrors. One day, while they were working, I had the students take pictures of themselves looking in the mirror so that we could capture the moment.
I then printed the pictures in black and white and gave them to the students to create a pastel portrait. The students could choose between chalk pastel and oil pastel. I pushed the students to try the one they were most unsure of.
The results were mixed. Some students were so caught up in the fact that they had not mastered the pastels that they didn't do great portraits. Some students found a new passion.

And here are a few quality examples.
