Self-Portrait

Wack Blind Contour+Fun Colors+Cute, Kitschy Things=Correct

   We were given mirrors, paper, and fine-pointed black-ink pens, and told to do a blind contour of ourselves. A blind contour drawing, is when you draw without looking down at your paper, and usually using only one, long consistent line to create the image.
   Then, we were to embellish the drawing with different aspects of our personality. What we like, dislike, want to be, who we are.
   I decided to take my drawing home and work on the piece with my Faber Castell markers! They're my favorite markers in the world, and the India Ink makes the outcome really pigmented and bright.
  Here's the finished product! (in bad quality, thank you phone..)
