Julius Caesar English Project: Brutus

This past week, I drew a portrait of Brutus from the play Julius Caesar for a project in English class. First, I traced a protrait of him from the internet. Then, I pressed down really hard on the paper to put an impression of the face on a poster. After that, I drew the face with a pencil and started to color it. I used oil pastels to color my portrait of Brutus because I like to use them when coloring pictures. It took a couple of hours trying to get the right mixture of colors to get the perfect color for his skin and hair. While doing this project, I learned that Brutus was a very noble man for killing himself instead of being captured by Mark Antony.
