Portraits: Silhouettes

     Remember that we already know what a silohuette is: it is the image of a person, an object or scene represented as a solid shape of a single colour, usually black, its edges matching the outline of the subject (Wikipedia). 

So let's put it into practice!!!

1. We will tape a paper to the wall and had them sit on a chair showing their profile.
2. A light will throw a shadow on the paper (white or coloured) that we will trace with a pencil.
3. We will cut along the line to get our silhouette.
