3/11/14 Journal

3/11/14

Today was the last day for subtractive self portraiture. Some of the results are great. Over top of their additive drawings, the students were given graphite resin to begin subtractive drawings with kneaded erasers. This produces interesting results. The students continue to use images from their phones as reference, which is normally frowned upon, but some of the more daring ones have started to use mirrors. This is encouraging, considering that any student who continues with other art classes or goes to school for art will be laughed at and discredited for using a photo reference for a self portrait rather than a mirror.
