Self Portrait Work




Self Portrait Reflection Questions

1. I chose this picture because I enjoy learning about the time period in which they were painted. These three paintings inspired me to learn more of the time period and history of the painting. 

2. I chose the media because it is easiest to work with and my favorite media. I work best with charcoal pencils and sketch pad paper.

3. The biggest challenge was aligning the facial features in proportion to each other. Also, it is difficult to make a sincere likeness to myself and not just create a generalized photo.

4. This piece is representative of myself because it shows a large smile. It is easier to draw myself when I am grinning. 

5. The use of lines were instrumental in creating the image. Also, the use of shadows and shading were useful in depicting the likeness of myself. 

6. I did not enjoy this project because it is difficult for me to correctly draw human figures and facial proportions. 

7. It was a little difficult to create a perfect image of the original picture. However, I was fairly pleased with the final product.
