Chuck Close Thumbprint Portraits

Materials:
- Tempera Paint
- Paintbrushes
- Two Sheets of White Drawing Paper Per Student
- Picture References (optional)

Love this project I've seen on Freckle Photo! The only step we added was that we did a grid drawing from a photograph I took of the students- which is perfect because Chuck Close was well known for his grid enlargements!

This student started very late so he opted to just sharpie rather than do his fingerprints. I loved how well his drawing turned out, though!





These look great when they're all displayed together! So bright and colorful!
