This was a fantastic project. Sam really enjoyed it and the finished self portrait looked spectacular in the window. You will need a good photo to work from and a large collection of coloured permanent markers, though!
You will need:
- A sheet of acetate or clear plastic
- A photo of you
- Permanent markers
Instructions:
Lay the acetate over the photo. Use the photo to help draw your self portrait on to the acetate.
