Grid Art Portrait Drawing

For my drawing and painting class I wanted students to practice grid art portait drawing and I wanted the students to be surprised by who they are drawing so none of the students knew who they were drawing. A simple template was cut and then squares double the size were cut  and were given to students and individual section of the image which is then assembled with the others to create a unique work of art. I was inspired for this project from artyfactory. Students enjoyed this project because they were very confident with the results and were able to draw realistically.
