Done from a picture of me when I was younger.. this is for a self portrait contest that I entered... don't know who won yet but I did this one because I think it best describes who I am...
Done in 2B, 4B and 6B pencil
There is a soft, yet intense feel to this piece. You look like a glamourous silent movie star! Your hair, and facial features are done really well, and you look very beautiful. Hope you win the contest.

Nice contrast. Very soulful image. I particularly like self-portraits because they reveal a lot about the artist.Dadang Pribadi 05 Feb 2005
