Description
I've been drawnI've been made
By myself
By the people
I'm surrounded with
They made me
Who I used to be
Who I am right now
Who I'll become
Yes, that's right. I finally did a self portrait. What a surprise!
Never ever did I dare to draw myself before and this was a huge step for me. I feel exposed.
My hair isn't really that long. Normally it just falls over my shoulders, but I didn't really want to expose my whole self so I made my hair cover some parts of my body.
And the rest is just... well... me.
I hope you like it. I know it's something totally different!
Stuff I used:
Time spent: 9,5 hours
Took the reference pictures myself.
Don't ask me how.
I tried to be someone else
But nothing seemed to change
I know now.
This is who I really am inside.
Finally found myself.
Fighting for a chance.
I know now
This is who I really am.
.............EDIT.............
Now available as print!!!

can you please teach me how to draw real people, i know you are probably very busy, and i know it takes practice, but i am a really good drawer, just not as good at realism, if you could just take a few minutes of your time to tell me how (in traditional drawing) how you shade and make the face proportional, i would appreciate it more than you could ever know!

I'm not really sure what I like the most, the drawing, or the description...
I really like the whole concept, and the shading is simple, but effective. It does look a bit like a photo to an average viewer, so I say you did a great job.

great texture, great idea, just.. you know, great.
really brave to do your first self portrait nude. I would feel pretty damned exposed too.
