I always like to start the school year by having everyone make a self portrait. A self portrait is a visual record of who you are right know. A self portrait can be a drawing, painting, photograph or even a sculpture. This week you are going to learn about one of the most famous self portrait artist Frida Kahlo and practice making portraits of our own.

Watch the video below to learn more about Frida Kahlo's life and art. Notice her self portraits only show her shoulders neck and focus on her face. I will show you how to draw your own self portrait so grab you art bags and lets get started!
