I selected my Inspiration pieces from several different virtual galleries: Director's Gallery: Auckland Art Galley; Director's Gallery: Skagens Museum; and Director's Gallery: Museum of Latin American Art. I selected my pieces because they are all somewhat unusual self-portraits: one is a couple, one is a picture of the artists torso only, and in one the artist's expression is unusual.
2. Why did you select the media to create your self-portrait?
I prefer to work in colored pencil because it is less messy, and it is easier to draw detail.
3. What challenges did you face in creating your self-portrait and how did you overcome them?
The challenge I mostly had was finding appropriate colors for my skin, eyes, etc. I'm still not really happy with the final colors.
4. How does this piece represent you?
I tried to stick to my picture as much as possible so it is as close as I can get to how I actually look.
5. What elements and principles of art did you apply in this work?
I used color, shape, emphasis, and line.
6. Did you enjoy working on this project?
Yes, it was fun to draw myself.
7. What do you think of your final artwork?
Like I said, I'm not completely happy with it, but I think it turned out ok.
