1/2 Face Drawing
In this project, each student chose one person that inspired them and had to print out a picture of them and draw half of their face. This activity helped us learn value, shading, and shadows. We then had to write a one paragraph explanation about why we chose to draw our chosen person. I drew Audrey Hepburn and my drawing and paragraph are below:
1/2 Face Drawing Artist Statement
Audrey Hepburn is inspiring to me because of the elegance and class she possesses in all of her films, as well as her devotion to humanitarianism. Audrey was born into a poverty stricken family, worked her entire life to achieve success, and ultimately became one of the most famous and influential women of her time. She was also one of few people to ever receive an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony. Additionally, as she aged, she began working with UNICEF and committed her life to helping others. Hepburn devoted her life to entertaining others through talent and film and she used the wealth she earned to give back to the world and help those in suffering. Audrey Hepburn is an inspiring woman and I admire her poise, talent, and character that she displayed through her life and career.
