 Me (digital) 

My self portrait 

1. Why did you select the inspiration pieces?

 I choose these pieces because they were ones that i was familiar with
2. Why did you select the media to create your self-portrait?

 because it was the easiest for me to access
3. What challenges did you face in creating your self-portrait and how did you overcome them?

It is very hard for me to draw because i do not have any talent at all when it comes to art even though i know my portrait is hideous it was a good challenge for me to actually try .
4. How does this piece represent you?

 It represents me because it shows one part of me that i can't really express . Even though it isn't the greatest self portrait it shows how i specifically view my self at least when trying to draw
5. What elements and principles of art did you apply in this work?

 i applied shades i tried to shade in the drawing that i made so that it would look more realistic and more like something professional
6. Did you enjoy working on this project?

yes i did because once again it challenged my skills of drawing which i need to work on a lot
7. What do you think of your final artwork?

 I don't think it is the best but i do believe that  if i keep practicing i can become better at drawing and making art work .
