self portrait

Snap. The first, and certaintley the most important step in completing a self portrait of yourself is a picture to look off of. Once my sketch was on my large piece of paper, I could start my color study. A color study is to figure out what color suits you and looks best with your portrait. I chose a turquise color. Mixing in black or white, make shadows and imprints stand out. When I first heard about this project, I was kind of nervous, I have never painted into detail like this before. When I was done, this project turned out to be one of my favorites, and I would love to do it again.
