Planning personal mixed media portraits
This Art and design video guides learners through the creative process of planning a mixed media self-portrait using photographs and other materials. Learners explore composition and experiment with materials, for example, collage, pastel and pencil. They also reflect on how their choices communicate meaning.
This video is part of Kapow’s Art and design resources, which support the Cambridge Primary Art & Design Curriculum Framework (0067). In the Stage 5 Painting and Mixed Media: Portraits unit, this lesson encourages learners to take creative risks and develop independence in their artistic decisions.
