Giuseppe Arcimboldo was an Italian painter best known for creating imaginative portrait heads made entirely of such objects as fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish, and books. We did a study of him and created our own self portraits using his techniques!
For this project children cut old magazines to create an imaginary face. They picked a category of objects to
work with such as: fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish, or books.
The results were beautiful and the children loved creating their self portraits!
