My first actual drawing of myself..I like how it came out but the proportions arent right. I did this for a scholarship art show at the college im applying to. Colored pencil, acrylic, and magazine maps on canson paper
The colors, the texturing of the background, I have to agree it does have an abstract feel to it...Very nicely done...Its hard to self portray oneself...I love it!
