Year 9 Digital Portraits in the Style of Julian Opie

Year 9 Digital Portraits in the Style of Julian Opie - Year 9 Digital Portraits in the Style of Julian Opie

Year 9 have just completed some fantastic digital illustrations in the style of British contemporary artist Julian Opie. They also researched about the artist and considered how portraiture can also take a digital format. This relates to the earlier portrait topics in Term 1, where they also recreated some famous Renaissance portraits using photography and have created some accurate tonal portraits using pencil. In Term 3 again they will look at contemporary painting using acrylic and explore the work of Chuck Close.
