Self Portrait

This piece is from the Birchfield Penny art gallery and is a self portrait of Charles E. Burchfield 

This is a self portrait of Vincent Van Gogh located in the National Gallery of art in Washington DC

This is a self portrait of William Strang located in the National Gallery of art in Washington DC

I chose the first picture, because when I was at the gallery for the second visit, I seen the picture and thought that it would be good to use especially since the exhibit was all about him. The second two picture that i used i found on the link you provided us with and i pulled them out because they were different form each other and very distinct. 




I chose to use pencil for this because it was clearly easy to erase and seemed like it would be the easiest. My challenges were clearly that i can not draw at all for the life of me. I tires my best, but i definitely didn't concur that barrier. I wanted to add color, but the drawing was so bad that I didn't want to ruin it anymore. This doesn't really represent anything to me, but it is the only decent picture that i had to use for this project. I did a lot of lines because just drawing normally was not working well so I totally scratched the idea. I tries to add a bit of the background, but that was going terribly so i stopped and focused more on me. This wasn't my favorite project by any means, but if i could draw i probably would have liked it a lot more. I absolutely dis like everything about my art work. It sucks so bad that I was even ashamed to even post it. Just being honest.
