Self Portrait Project!
So for this weeks visual design project, we've had to produce a self portrait. After having longer projects for the past few weeks, it felt strange to be almost back to normal...
Anyway back to the selfie. During Mondays lecture, Mitch helped us out with a variety of different methods used for drawing characters. More specifically - faces. We also looked at Bargue Plates which were awessssooommeee and I found them to be really useful when doing quick studies in the build up to the final piece.
In the end, I chose to draw my portrait onto grey paper so I'd be able to use a white pencil to highlight the lighter areas on my face. However, I don't think this looks 100% like me...possibly because my hair's up? Who knows. I had great fun with this project though and I'd definitely like to produce a few more with different expressions etc.
Roll on the next project!
