- A portrait of another person or pet. Can include portraits of a child.
- For this contest, we will utilize the definition of portrait found on
Wikipedia definition of ‘portrait’:
“A portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic
representation of a person, in which the face and its expression is
predominant. The intent is to display the likeness, personality, and
even the mood of the person. For this reason, in photography a
portrait is generally not a snapshot, but a composed image of a
person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking
directly at the painter or photographer, in order to most
successfully engage the subject with the viewer.”
