Self Portrait
For this project, we had to do a self portrait using charcoal and an eraser. Instead of
drawing, this time we had to blacken the paper, and then erase an image of ourselves out
of the blackness by duplicating our image from a mirror. We were also supposed to wear a
disguise. Mine was just a headband/bandanna for a hippie look, but my picture came out
looking a lot more Native American than hippie-ish. The actual drawing (well, erasing...)
looks alot better than this digitized one. Much of the shading was shot to heck in the
conversion process.
