The Self-Portrait
Draw and edit your self-portrait. I am looking to see how you use the drawing and editing tools, not how well you draw. You may create a cartoon or caricature instead of a realistic portrait. Create a self-portrait on the left half of the canvas. Copy your self-portrait (Edit>Copy) and paste (Edit>Paste) in the right half of the canvas. Use transformation, edit and paint tools to alter the pasted copy. Make your portrait similar to my self-portrait below.
You may attach your self-portrait .swf file to the Discussion area and refect on the process.
