Self Portrait



This is my self portrait. Goals in this painting is show light and dark by using charcoal. I used black charcoal to draw the dark areas and erased the charcoal where is lighter. Difficult part of this drawing is drawing the shadow which has different tone of color, it is hard to put different tone of black by charcoal. I used really dark charcoal and rubbed it to give the medium tone of black. Erin Cone might be good mentor to learn how to draw shadow and lights because she is really good at drawing shadow and lights. I did well on this painting is that I putted all the lights and shadow I saw on my photograph.
