Day 1: Introduce abstract and demonstrate how to draw a profile on the board. Students will use sketchbooks for rough drafts. Continue to complete second half of face. Encourage students to use a different eyes, mouths, etc. for the second half of the face. Provide visual examples of facial features (eyes, mouth, eye brows, etc). I have several books and xerox packets of eyes, mouths, and noses. Some students make a "good" side and a "bad" side, which includes piercings, fangs, etc. A student who is a huge fan of batman made Two-Face (see image below).
Day 2: Discuss and show examples of Pablo Picasso. Show Youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXLi9QKaPU4.
Demonstrate on board how to create pattern for the background (see pictures below). This was the first time I used this pattern in the background- therefore, I didn't realize until after the kids finished the entire sheet with this time consuming design that it should have been completed on the same piece of paper as the profile.
