SELF PORTRAIT ILLUSTRATION




Take a self-portrait using the camera, tripod and self timer.

Make a new document 8×12  300 resolution.

Put your self-portrait within the new document.

Put a blank layer on top of your photograph, and lock the photo layer.

Use the pencil to trace yourself and then use brushes and colors to color in your illustration. Consider using skin and clothing tones to trace, so you are not completely outlined in black, if that is not the look you are going for.

Consider overlaying a duplicate layer with Posterise filter, to highlight the different areas of value and use shades of that color to make portrait less flat and give it more dimension.

Add a background to your illustration layer and post to your site as a .jpeg, with a list of 10 words to describe yourself. Copy and submit to Google Classroom on a doc as well.
