Portraits in the style of Chuck Close

In our art project, we referred to previous teaching in which we learnt about the types of pencils and their uses and the different grips used for sketching and shading. We reminded ourselves of the importance of working very lightly when sketching an outline. Following on from this, our project involved developing an understanding of the American artist Chuck Close and the techniques he uses in his work, producing self-portraits in his style. We are all thrilled with our finished pieces of art work!
