Portrait

A portrait is a picture or painting of a person. It's like taking a photo of your friends or family, but instead of using a camera, an artist uses paints or pencils to create the picture.

When someone makes a portrait, they try to capture the way a person looks and their personality. This means they pay attention to things like the person's face, hair, and the way they hold themselves.

Sometimes portraits are very realistic, and it feels like the person in the picture is right in front of you. Other times, artists might make the portrait look more like a cartoon or drawing.

People have been making portraits for hundreds of years. Back in the olden days, only really rich people could afford to have their portrait made. But now, anyone can have a portrait created - even you!
