self portrait
11" X 14"
graphite on pastel paper
The main idea with my piece was to draw a self portrait of a printed image i had of myself. i put my paper into a graph and drew each box as i went. I was aloud to add color so i added protest signs about what's happening in america today. I also put that strip over my mouth as a protest as well.
For this piece, I used graphite, paint, water color, and black pens.
