This Art and design video demonstrates how to create a final mixed media self-portrait using ideas from earlier lessons. The activity encourages personal expression, thoughtful composition and confident use of materials to communicate identity.

This Art and design video supports teachers to guide learners in creating a final mixed media self-portrait, drawing on their experiments and ideas from earlier lessons. It encourages reflection, peer feedback and creative decision-making as learners select materials and approaches that best express their identity.

This Art and design video demonstrates how to plan a mixed media self-portrait using photographs and a range of materials. The activity encourages creative risk-taking, thoughtful composition and independent artistic choices to communicate meaning.

This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners through the process of developing ideas for mixed media self-portraits. Learners use photo portraits as a starting point and experiment with combining different materials such as paint, collage and pastels, recording outcomes in their visual journals.

This Art and design video demonstrates how to develop poem portraits by transferring drawings onto painted or collaged backgrounds. The activity encourages experimentation with printmaking, composition and thoughtful positioning to support personal expression.

 

This Art and design video demonstrates how to create expressive painted or collaged backgrounds to support poem portraits. The activity encourages creative decision-making, exploring how colour, shape and texture can reflect personality and mood.

This Art and design video demonstrates how to create a self-portrait using continuous line drawing and personal poetry. The activity encourages expressive mark-making and explores identity through the combination of image and text.

 

This Art and design video supports teachers in guiding learners to create expressive self-portraits that combine continuous line drawing with personal text or poetry. Learners draw themselves using a single, uninterrupted line to capture facial features and shadows, then overlay their portrait with words that follow the form of the face, building a layered, creative composition.

This Art and design video guides learners through the process of creating a lino or polystyrene print from their own drawing. Children learn how to transfer their designs onto a printing plate, carve or press in lines to create areas of contrast and safely use tools and ink rollers to make their final print.
