My Grid Value Portrait

Grid Value Portraits

Last term my class and I have been making some grid value portraits. If you don't know what a grid value portrait is, well then I'll tell you. It is a type of art that uses grids like squares.we took pictures of our class mates individual. The pictures we took of our self's were in black and white which would make it easier to see where to make one square darker or lighter. Also when the pictures came out we had to rule them down and across. Then we got a huge paper that had grids. Afterwards we had to look at our picture to see if we could see were to make light patterns or a dark pattern. In the end we made our self's out of light and dark patterns. Also we were inspired by the artist Chuck Close, we found out that he went through hard times but he never gave up.
