final self portrait
this was my final for my self portrait. I really loved how this turned out.
I used chalk and the chalk pencils which I usually hate but I actually really enjoyed using this time. I liked the way I was able to shade with them. I feel like I could really show the darks and lights with them. I used different colors to add value in the sunflowers and on the leaves and in my skin.
I had a hard time trying to show what I actually look like. I don't think the part of my face looks like me very much but I think the face still looks good. I think the cheek and chin kind of blend together and you can't tell the difference of where they stop and start. The neck and the chin also look like they blend together in the picture but in real like the drawing is darkened under the chin to show the difference.
I really love this project over all. If I could change anything I guess it would be my face. I love how the skull turned out I just wish my face looked more like me. Like I said before the chin and the Cheek and te neck all kind of blend together but I couldn't figure out how to draw my face to make it look more like me. I guess I need to darken and lighten places to make it more like me and make the face not as round.
