Year 3-Black on White Self Portraits.

We were inspired by the art work of celebrated street artist BANKSY who uses tone and minimal colours to great effect in his work. We took some silly photos and digitally made them greyscale. We looked at how the negative space in the photo were the lighter areas in our portraits and suggested features. We then had a go at reproducing them in paint. It was very difficult but we all did our very best. Take a look:-
