Final Project!

"All The Pieces In My Life"

For the self portrait above, the background was to
be done about something that represents my personality.
So I am in the center, with the people, and things that I
enjoy surrounding me. Done in Conte Crayon, and Charcoal.



My Very First self portrait! I think this has a little more
defining lines, because I drew it from a picture and could see
all of the lines in the picture, the Final picture was drawn from a
mirror image. So while I think I have improved,
I still could use some practice.

Self Portrait from a Mirror Image

Part 1 Final


Contour Line Drawing of myself! Using pencil, and looking
in a mirror. It is amazing how many more things can be seen in a
mirror than a posed picture. I am looking a little tired
and sad, but that is how I was feeling when drawing myself,
so I think I captured it pretty well. It was difficult drawing
without using shading.


This was my very first self portrait ever, as well as the first
one required for the class. I used pencil as well, but was
able to do come shading. my hair was longer,
and it was drawn from a picture. I do like them both,
however I think the second one or contour drawing is more realistic,
in part because it was drawn from a live model, not a picture.
