Self Portrait- The Dark Side

• My goals and intentions in this artwork were to capture as many lights and darks in my eye.
• I spent the most ime working on my eye.
• My piece is all about one of my eyes.
• The most difficult challenge I had to face was drawin the nose in proportion to the eye.
• I met that challenge by lining everything up straight up and down my face.
• My piece really works on the right side of my face.
• I have learned that I can make never ending shadows on my eye.
• Farwell helped me and I learned to capture the eye.
• I learned from steph and not to draw mascara.
• If I had a do-over, I would include more of my face.
• I feel best about my eye.

I might use it again if im painting very little detailed objects.

Why not? Why? Under what circumstances?

What brings me joy

Movement and silence
