The masked ink wash portrait felt successful as I used a variety of values and marks. The next unmasked is still ink washed, which I started in class but finished at home. The larger unmasked of conte crayon on grey paper is on display at school. It looks kinda like me but adding so much orange was Trump excessive! It makes me laugh to see it so it’s not posted here. I find self portraits problematic in that usually the shape of head is too big or too small, eyes get over emphasized and hard to make yourself look your current age.
