Self portrait

For homework in figure drawing class, we have been drawing different parts of the head in our sketch books. This week, we were assigned to put all of those parts together and do a self-portrait.

I typically have a lot of trouble with self portraits because of the way the mind distorts what I see in the mirror. I never have as much trouble drawing other people’s faces as I do my own. But considering my past difficulty, I think that this picture came out pretty nice.
