I developed my sketching skills when drawing my self portrait.
I thought that shading the portrait was difficult because if I made on dark line I couldn’t rub it out. I am proud of the background of my strip because it took me a long time and I think it was worth it because it looks amazing. Next time I would make the colours in the background a bit brighter.
The skills I developed my sketching skills becauseat the start I wasn’t good at sketching.
I developed cross hatching and much more.The parts that was hard was sticking our left portraits on the suger paper as it was cut up in to strips.I am proud of mine because I tried my hardest and I did struggle but I didn’t stop trying.Something I would do differently would be taking more time sketching the portrait instead of rushing it and being the first to finish.And next time I will take more care in what I’m sketching instead rushing
Some thing challenging was sticking the strips of paper and cutting it out.i am proud that my sketch turned out good.
I developed loads of sketching skills such as scumbling,sketch,stippling and stripping.I am proud of my outcome because I have improved from the start of the week.
Finish questions
The spiralling was probably the hardest but sketching wise it was the nose.Next time I would focus more on the nose.
I am proud of the art techniques I used in my self portrait,I didn’t believe that I would do good but the more I looked the more I saw it get better.I feel the sticking of the portrait was the most challenging but I still did it.
The skills. I developed are cross hatching tone and I used them in my drawing and it was really tricky drawing our faces and it was really challenging and next time I am going to add more deatail
I delvoped stippling technique and shading technique.
I thought that drawing a character head is hard because you have to draw it right.
I am proud of my shading because I used a bit of shading for the character I drawn.
I would do different is draw a shape of the character head right.
I would to my nose and hair better next time.
I think what was challenging was that how to cut while making it a spiral.I am proud of my sketching skills and my techniques.
The skills I developed were my sketching skills because before I was bad but now I’m amazing a5 it.
1)The skills we developed were shading,texture,symmetry,proportion,mono tone,2d and 3D
2) What we found challenging is when you have to make it cut out as it didn’t go right For me expecialy because Naly rounded mine😤
3)I’m proud of my sketching and shading skills
4)I need to improve the way I present my presentation
I do forgive Naly because he was trying to help so Naly if you read this than there’s your welcome

i dis really good and i am proud
of how much i’ve developed in
art.
i have developed my shading and sketching skills.
Loving how individual they are, truly works of art.
I developed my sketching skills because at the start I was not able to sketch my face but now I can.I think that trying to get the eye right was difficult because you had to look at the proportion.I am proud of the end outcome because I used a range of shading skills.If I would do it again I would use different types of pencils to show different shading techniques.
Brilliant reflection, Martyna! Well done.
Well done to all the children who showed great persistence and dedication to completing this task.
And well done to you, Ms Kaur, for supporting the children in this learning.
I develop my cross hatching and light shading👍🏻🙂😀
This task has helped develop my cutting and sketching skills as I had to be very careful whilst cutting out my portrait.I also had to sketch in detail as I wanted my portrait to resemble me as much as possible.What I found challenging was that I wanted it to look like me and wanted to copy every detail perfectly.
You did really well, Bethany! You worked hard on perfecting it. Well done.
(1) I developed crosshatching skills as when we did it we were like
|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-l-l-l-l-l-l-l
(2) What we found challenging is when you have to make it cut out as it didn’t go right
(My one is the bottom one).
(3) I’m proud that my work went on the blog.
(4) I would make it sticking it on better as it went bad.
You did well, Armaan!
1)The skills we developed were shading,texture,symmetry,proportion,mono tone,2d and 3D
The skills I developed which I wasn’t so good before are shading,stippling,smudging and also the detail of the features on the body and face.I found challenging the resemblance between what I draw and what I was trying to draw.
I am very proud of the first picture which was mine!Although I didn’t come out as good as I thought it would!😕
The resemblance was amazing – well done!
I think I did good, however the eye proportion was quite challenging, but I still made it.
You did well – your eyes especially looked like you!
These portraits are amazing.
So was yours Isa!
The skills i developed are my sketching skills.The actually making the portrait with my face on was challenging.I am proud of how it turned out.Next time i will add more features to make it look features to make it look like me.
