Jasper Johns Flag Portraits



2nd and 3rd grade students learned about the artist Jasper Johns. Johns is well known for his American flag paintings. We took inspiration from his work to create our own unique flag designs using stars and stripes and the colors red, white and blue. Students then practiced drawing self portraits. Some students even chose to add patriotic clothing! The portraits were then cut and glued on top of the flag paintings.
