One of the most popular art genres through time, portraiture, Rembrandt takes the lead with 100 self-portraits including 40 paintings, 31 etchings, and seven drawings.  Of Frida Kahlo's 143 paintings, 55 of them were self-portraits.  Van Gogh painted 30 portraits of himself.  Within his 75-year career as an artist, Picasso also painted 30 portraits of himself.

Practice shading and the Element of Value, to create the illusion of depth.  Apply that skill to practice drawing facial features: eyes, noses, mouths, and ears, and put them together to create a self-portrait.

Shape a plaster-gauze mold of your face as an acrylic sub-straight to create a dramatic wearable art piece.

In this presentation, we will talk about the many faces of grief including when it can occur and the many ways it affects us.  We will talk about the entire spectrum of grief, from anticipatory grief experienced before a loss to the ways we struggle when we experience loss.  Grief is natural, normal, and happens to everyone and we will learn how to recognize grief in ourselves and others.  We will also provide a list of recommended support resources.
