Gr. 10 Portraiture Technology

The ISU Visual Arts and Technology classes just completed a fantastic interdisciplinary unit with grade 10 called "Portraiture Technology." This is truly one of my favorite units of all the grades I teach. I love it! Take a look at the amazing portraits the students created, and if you get a chance, ask them what the materials and colors represent. Since self-expression was central to this unit, symbolism plays a large part in the mixed media art presentation.
