We just finished up Fauvist Self Portraits with soft pastel and pastel pencils in Advanced Drawing Intensive. Students had to portray themselves with an exaggerated expression and a non-realistic color palette, inspired by French Fauvism and German Expressionism of the early 1900s. Marianne’s artwork is pictured below; click here to see all of the student solutions and learn more about this project.
