Atticus worked in PrismaColor pencils to finish his self-portrait. He worked on finishing the background and he added fish in a contrasting color as a pattern for the background. Then he finished coloring in the details of the face. I helped his blend some shadows around the eyes, on the mouth and on the sides of his cheeks. We worked on holding the pencil at an angle and creating fast strokes that follow the form of what we’re coloring. This means, if something is curved down, your brush strokes should follow that direction.
