Self-Portraits

I made these two with some time inbetween. With the first one being digital and the other made with pencil. I haven't drawn on paper in a long while so i had some real difficulty transitioning back to traditional mediums. Digital drawing is just so much easier because you have all these powerfull tools at your hand. Like the undo function, image flipping and color/tone checking. I feel like traditional art requires so much more effort.


Self-potrait, photoshop

For this picture i used a photo reference. I tried to block in most colors using a squared chalk brush and softening transitions where necessary with an airbrush.

Self-potrait, pencil

This picture i made using a mirror, a HB/2B pencil and eraser. The tones were done with a technique called cross-hatching.
