Inspired by Frida Kahlo and her famous self portraits, I decided to draw one. I drew a couple before, but haven't drawn one recently. And I'm sure my drawing skills have improved so shall my self portraits.
I think I started with a difficult position. I wanted to draw one where my head is slightly facing downwards emphasizing my eyes and de-emphasizing the lower part of my face.
Maybe I should have done one with one facing head on. That's my next project!
Medium: 2B pencil.
My learning process through the exploration of techniques for drawing human shape and form.
