Description
decided to do a self portrait to mark my 19th birthday which was on the 12th of July.I prefer to draw from life than from photo reference. faster and much more accurate and definitely more "life". lol
I look much uglier in real life.
Coloured pencils on colour paper. Sat in front of the mirror for 2.5 hours. XD

Ahh i love this! My favorite aspect is your use of highlights, especially on like the lip and nose area. It makes it look so realistic.
And happy belated birthday, I turned 19 just 3 days before you
