Face proportions HW

Our homework was to research face proportions.         

In this picture it shows how you can divide the face to make it easier to sketch the parts of the face in the right place.

 This picture shows where you sketch the parts of the face.
The first quarter goes from the top of the head to the hair.
The second measures from the top of the forehead to the middle of the eye.
The third quarter shows half of the eye to the nose and the ears.
The forth shows the lips and the chin.

You can also draw the proportions like this.
 The top quarters have half of the eyes and the ears, the bottom quarters have half of the eyes, the nose, the mouth and the chin.

This week in our lesson we learned how to draw the ear and we sketch the different parts of the face with different types of materials. The materials that i used were pencils, charcoal, coloring pencils,  pen, and oil pastels.
pencil, charcoal, and coloring pencils
Left (eye, nose, mouth) pen. Right (eye, mouth, nose)oil pastels .
Down (ear) pencil



It was hard to sketch the ear because it has an odd form. I think the easiest part of the face to sketch is the eye or the mouth because the nose is only shading and it is hard to shade the nose. It is hard to sketch with charcoal because it is thick, i prefer to sketch with pencils.

Portraits Home Work

A portrait is an sculpture, painting or photograph of a person, usually the face and the person is looking at who painted or photographed the portrait.






This portrait was drawn by my teacher in Italy, it is a portrait of me and i think it is simple, but i does have the detail in my head which is the way i used to tie my hair when I was little.

This is a picture or a portrait of me, it is me when i lived in Italy and it is a normal picture that my mum toke, i only wanted to take this picture because of my hair, i think it is plain picture.







This is the painting of Mona Lisa, who painted it was Leonardo da Vinci. it is an amazing painting, and even though everyone wonders if she is smiling or not i am sure she is.

In our last lesson we started sketching parts of the faces were i learned how to draw an eye, mouth, and nose. I think my eyes and mouth went well but my nose i still have to improve.
My sketch of the parts of the face

 We also showed our last  weeks homework, the contents page, mind map and the learner profile. One that i like the most was Omri's Learner Profile background circular pattern.

In the first lessons of Arts we learned how to make a blog. Then Miss. Fontoura told us what our "book" was about. We started making the contents page and then the Mind Map (for the ones that hadn't finished) and the Learner Profile were sent as Home Work
My contents Page
I used water color pencils for my contents page, I already had used water color pencils but i didn't had any ideas although i liked the way it turned out. I also learned more about how to make pasterns with water colors which actually helped me after to do my Learner Profile.
