Self-Portrait #2: Keith Haring

Sixth graders have just finished their second self-portrait project for Unit III: Media. 

The assignment was to create a self-portrait in the style of Keith Haring, using at least three figures. 

Students interpreted the assignment quite creatively. Some drew themselves in various stages of one motion (for example, shooting a basketball). Others imagined themselves in action, surrounded by friends.
