This is my first sketch of my self portrait, I highlighted the features of my face by indicating the dark and the brighter spots.

Then I traced out the photo using carbon paper. I messed up a few times as you can see in the photo and some of my lines were not very smooth. Surprisingly, this part was actually really hard for me but Idid manage to fix my mistakes

I traced out the outline of my face onto cardboard and cut it out. This step was very tiring as it was hard to use the scissors to cut throught the cardboard so I took more time than expected.

Next i traced out the specific facial features like the shadows and the highlight. Then I cut out all these facial features to paste on my artwork. This part was quite time consuming as we had to trace out one by one each of the shadows and bright areas. I also found the pieces difficult to cut due to the pieces being small.

I pasted all the shadows and key features of my face onto the cardboard as this was when I was almost done with the face. This part was quite easy as all we had to do was paste the parts that we already cut out.

I created a hair backing and a hair backing so that I can place my hair there later on.

I completed my first hair and this was a picture of it together with my face and I was honestly surprised how it turned out as I thought making the hair was really tough but it turned out way better than I initially expected.

Next I started working on my shirt. I used cut out some designs from a cardboard bag and used it as my shirt. Then I added to more designs like flowers.

I made my second hair and I wanted it to look more fluffy and make the hair slightly longer.

This is my final product
