Self Portrait

I don't know about this one. I really like my original drawing and concept but the paint pens may have butchered it. Oh well, I tried something new.

  1. I find your self-portrait very interesting. The dramatic lighting goes really well with the colors and the mood/emotion. I can't really pinpoint a specific emotion or mood, but the eyes are wide open showing that there may be something shocking or something that you fear in the direction your face is looking in. The peach and purple colors above and below your eyes really help bring this emotion out. The blue lines below the eyes remind me of when people get sick in anime, they get the lines on the cheeks and under the eyes.
    What I'm reading from this drawing is that you can be so different that its shocking or even maybe freaks people out. (which isn't a bad thing!) I thought this was a very interesting and cool approach to your self-portrait. The technique that you used adds to the drawing in a positive way. The only thing that is a negative, to me, is that the pencil lines make it feel unfinished. I think you used some type of markers or paint, but overall great job!! :)
