Shape portraits

This Art and design video guides learners through the process of creating a final portrait inspired by their shape drawings from the previous lesson. Children begin by lightly sketching the shapes they have identified, learning how to draw with control and make adjustments if needed. The video then recaps key colouring techniques, reminding learners to hold their pencil correctly, apply pressure, work in one direction, and avoid leaving gaps.

This video is part of Kapow’s Art and design resources, which support the Cambridge Primary Art & Design framework. It helps learners build confidence in combining drawing and colouring techniques, supporting their ability to plan, refine and complete a finished piece. This lesson reinforces skills in observation, control and creative decision-making through a personal, expressive portrait activity.
