HOMEWORK #8 SELF-PORTRAIT


For the eighth and final homework assignment students are to render a self-portrait. We have two very different examples above. The top drawing is a traditionally rendered image addressing light and shadow as well as the textural qualities of the head and face. The drawing below it is a more conceptual piece with a very moving and powerful commentary on the frailty of life and the passing of time. The use of props brings added dynamics to the narrative.
