Teacher- Ms. Getzen
For this assignment, we had to choose a picture of ourselves, and create a self portrait out of it using Chuck Close's method.

I picked a selfie of myself, and decided to use one of Chuck Close's method, which is basically coloring the the face with just colors instead of shapes.

I think this assignment addresses Creativity as the 21st century skill because we all had to think of a way to create a portrait that somehow resembles features of a face, but also have it be kind of like an abstract drawing. I'm mostly proud that it actually resembles my photo. I think creativity is a given, but the more you learn, the more you find creative ways to work. The hard part about this assignment was that I didn't know how I wanted to draw the face, but at the end I just sketched the face and went from there. I wouldn't want to try and improve this assignment, because I think it's unique in it's own way.
