This homework assignment invites students to explore significant portraits that capture their interest. From Chuck Close's 'Maggie' (1996) to Andy Warhol's 'Lavender Marilyn' (1962), students will select a portrait, which could be a painting, photograph, or sculpture. They will place it in the center of their page and analyze the artist's use of elements such as subject, form, shape, color, pattern, line, tone, and texture.
