"Self-Portrait"


6"x6"
Graphite on Bristol Board
NFS

I haven't done one of these in a while!! I was much younger! Doing this drawing really made me see the lines my face will be taking on as I age. . .interesting. It reminds me of doing a drawing of my mother about 20 years ago when she was a year or two younger than I am now. She was a beautiful woman and I'd say a little vain. When I came to the slight double chin and sagging cheeks, I found myself not drawing them that way! I just was vague in that area and that part of her aging didn't show!. She liked the drawing!
