Picture of Myself
self-portrait
I found my inspiration pieces from The Walker Gallery in Liverpool. I choose these pieces because I thought they were very well done and looked almost exactly like the artists who drew them. I selected pencil and colored pencils to create my self portrait because I find these materials easiest to work with. The challenges i faced when creating this portrait was how to make it actually look similar to me. I overcame this challenge by drawing my self the best way I could. This piece represents me because it is my style of drawing. The elements and principles in this portrait are color and emphasis. I very much enjoyed working on this project, I never created a self-portrait of myself so this was something new to me. I think my final work is done to the best of my ability and I am happy with it.
