About this School Project (3rd grade Kehinde Wiley self portraits)
Students learned about Kehinde Wiley, an American artist who paints realistic portraits with beautiful elaborate backgrounds. Wiley chooses to pose his subject much like old master paintings, but keeps them in their contemporary styles, so the students posed looking formal and important.
