Self-portraits, drawing style.


These are my latest pieces from my Drawing I class. The first one is a practice composite: on three separate pieces of paper, I practiced drawing my eye, nose, and mouth with charcoal. I then I put them together in Photoshop® just to see how they looked. 


This piece is drawn on transparent draft paper with graphite powder/pencil. The style has a sprinkle of inspiration from Jim Dine's self-portraits. It focuses mainly on volume, with only small portions given meticulous detail. The bottom half of the drawing is my frustration and curiosity revealing themselves with squiggles and texture. 
PS: I have no idea how to draw hair.
