Hello! This is a self-portrait referenced from a photo that I took while sitting at my desk today as I am currently working from home. I wanted to pick an image that I felt best summed up my life at the moment.
As this is the first self portrait that I have ever completed, I really didn’t know what to expect. It’s difficult to stare at yourself for an extended period of time but by the end of this I managed to not be bothered by it so much. I’ve been experimenting more with different brush sets in Procreate on my iPad as my paints/pencils/easel is currently packed and waiting for me to move apartments but I really feel like digital is teaching me a lot about how to be more efficient with my work.
All critiques welcome. (Side note: My eyes are actually lopsided I promise that they’re correct proportionally.)
