My selection was based off of my interest for the artists as well as the portraits itself especially that of Salvador Dali. I selected pencil for my media because its my favorite media to use in general. Its simple and can be manipulated to be messy or clean and i like that about it. Some challenges I faced were proportion and evenness. I dealt with them by just going with the flow. This piece represents me because it is me! I used emphasis on my eyes and lips because those are my strongest facial features and therefore chose to leave my nose out to allow for the emphasis to occur. I used color or lack there of due to personal preference. I used lines to define my hair and proportion in my eyes and lips. My self portrait is asymmetrical. I did enjoy working on this project very much, it was interesting to see what I am capable of. I thought it would come out WAY worse than it did. I love my final artwork. Everything Ive done thus far has been a complex because i intended it to be that way. This piece, my final piece, however, is complete opposite. Just simple.
