"Incognito" Observational Charcoal Self-Portrait 
Georgia O'Keeffe-inspired Realistic Mixed Media Skull
Students will create a well crafted and highly detailed Observational Realistic Self-Portrait by looking in a mirror and referring to a reference photograph of themselves that was created from a photo-shoot designed by the individual student. Students employ the five drawing skills that were developed during the first semester to achieve this cumulative assessment piece. Students must have a definite light source, broad value range, and great attention to detail.
