Some time
ago on pinterest a pin showing a Falling back in Space Portrait
caught my eye.
The pin brought me to Katie’s blog http://oodlesofart.blogspot.comKatie is an Elementary Art Teacher and she made some beautiful Falling back in Space Portraits with her class. Now I tried it with Isabel and we had great great fun.
Here’s how we’ve done it:
We took a sheet of paper and we traced our feet facing outward towards the bottom of the paper.
We traced
out our hands towards the top of the paper.
Here is what turned out:
We added
the body beginning with the head and the neck.
The most
important thing then: Arms and legs get larger as they get closer to the
tracings of hands and feet.
We added
face-and body details and coloured our Falling in Space Portraits with
water soluble colour pencils.
And here we
are !
