The Portrait Now
Hello there! Today we're talking about portraits - which are pictures of people's faces. People have been painting portraits for thousands of years as a way to remember and honor important people.
Nowadays, portraits are most often done using photography. Have you ever had your picture taken? It's kind of like that, but instead of just taking one picture, the photographer takes lots of different ones from different angles and with different light.
Once the photos are taken, the photographer picks the best one to use as the portrait. Then, they might edit it a little bit to make the colors look better or make any blemishes go away. This is kind of like coloring in a coloring book, but on a computer.
Once everything looks good, the portrait is ready to be printed or shared online! And that's how a portrait is made.
