Day of the Dead Self-PortraitConnecting to a project in Spanish class, we painted self-portraits Day of the Dead style in art. In Spanish we had to pick a proverb that related to a lesson we learned in our lives. I chose "Actions speak louder than words." We had to express this proverb through our art while creating a self-portrait. In my painting, I painted my mouth to look like my mouth was shut to represent how actions spoke louder than words. However, it was a challenge to represent this proverb in my painting and I was limited in how I could convey "Actions speak louder than words."
