Self Portrait


My self portrait was probably the toughest project I had completed this year. Although i do love to paint, getting the shadows on my face and colors of my skin right was very difficult. The way I painted was painting the darks first and then putting the highlights in last. First, I painted the undertones in my face and hair that were mostly green, pink, and red so that when I started painting my skin tones the undertones would come through and make it look like me. Overall, i am very happy with how my self portrait came out, but it was very difficult to do.
