Final Project Drawing I

Art Challenge Smallest size you may work is 12x16. You will create a portrait of yourself, or someone else. You must incorporate 2 mediums into your drawing (one must be a drawing medium) Ex: cut paper and ink, watercolor and graphite, color pencil and graphite, etc… NO ANIME! Unless you can legitimize it as a drawing style, and create a strong enough project that will allow you to work the entire duration of the project.

4 parts to this project The drawing (you may begin when I sign your contract) Find an artist that relates to your work. Write an artist’s statement Fill out an Elements and Principles Sheet.
