Self- Portrait

For my self portrait I wanted to try red and green as they are may least favourite complementary colours to work with (manly because I see them a Christmas colours). This was my first sketches that I did leading to my project. I focused on the head shape for these studies. Here were my colour studies. This was my first try of my portrait, but I did not like it. So I restarted. This was the portrait that I started to like, but Then I wanted to fix the background and the face a little. This was my finally result! Self Portrait of me with long hair!

After getting feedback I went an added more shading to the eyes and fixed some areas.

She brings in elements of gender identity, race, and social politics. She is drawing before and afterwards with pencil, such as sketching the body shapes or drawing hair on the figures. Her use of painting outside the canvas on to the wall is an idea that I want to explore, because I tend to paint all the sides of my framed canvas, but I would be interesting to explore breaking free from that boundary. The use of pencil and paint in her work are two interesting mediums that I want to try, I might and try using colour pencils such as prisma colour. I do want to investigate the difference between drawing and painting plus the relationship of the body and physical space as a response. I do love the fragments of the figures, how they their body is not fully there but the mind can create...
