Self Portraits Inspired by Mona Lisa

The Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci
The Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci is one of the most famous paintings in the world.  You can see how da Vinci used perspective to create the illusion of depth by adding a landscape in the background.  With this in mind, eighth grade students were asked to draw their self portraits and include a background that showed perspective.
