self-portraits :)

I had absolutely NO self-confidence when starting the self portrait. All I could think of was how I would try to draw myself in the past, and how that epically failed. But in the past, I didn't use all the techniques I did this time. Griding the paper as well as my picture and taking it step by step really helped me figure out where my eyes and nose and all my features went. After I inked the small, start off portrait, I thought- one down, time to try this again. I used the same techniques as before, and soon enough, I had my face on a big piece of paper. Inking and painting came soon after drawing it out, and in the end, my picture actually kind of looked like me!
