Mustached Self-Portraits

Today my artists drew Salvador Dali-inspired self-portraits.  I found the idea from There's a Dragon in my Art Room.  

(The artwork above is from There's a Dragon in my Art Room.)

I switched it up by having my kids draw themselves instead of Dali.  I really love how they turned out.

    1. Nope, I don't, and I don't have an art teacher either. I'm it. I try to do art a few times a month. I really enjoy it and the kids do too. I just wish I knew what I was doing. :)

    2. In our specials rotation, the first grade does some art with the kids. I'm so glad because I know they love it, and I just wouldn't have time in my room!
