Our Self- Portraits
Our entire group spent a class creating self-portraits. We were asked to think about who we are and what made us unique. We wrote down things we like to do, skills we are good at, and things that are important to us. We tried to include those things in our portraits.
All of our portraits will become part of a larger project called Faces of Buffalo. Artist Brian Nesline invites all people, young and old, from all over Buffalo to create self portraits and other drawings to be united into beautiful mosaics representing the community. Our portraits will eventually be blended with those of other people to create beautiful mosaics of our city.
