My sketch

In todays art lesson I completed the sketch of myself for my portrait. What I have to do now is come up with some symbols that reflect my personality or things that I like. Then I have to incorporate the symbols in to my self portrait. For next weeks lesson I have set myself a small homework task of coming up with a colour scheme for my portrait. I think that I will use pastel colours because my sketch is quite soft. Colours like pale yellow, pink, blue and lilac will create a good colour scheme as well as reflect some of my personality. I'm going to practice making some of these colours at home with water colours then re-create them in class next week when we will be starting the final portrait.
