Good morning Flamingos!

You may have found from your research that Van Gogh loved painting self-portraits. He painted 30 self-portraits in just three years!

  2. Have a go at drawing your own self-portrait. Consider what facial expression you’re going to have (smiling, frowning, laughing…) and whether you’ll have any props like a hat or sunglasses. Also, what will your background be?

Here is a great video to help get the proportions of faces:

Please email me your final pieces. I can’t wait to see your creative work!
