Summer Project
12 Self portraits
Medium : Drawing paper with pencil
Size:22.9cmX30.5cm
Summer project :This project was to be developed the summer before senior year.There were many different options but I chose to do the 12 self portraits because just like Frida Kahlo I believe the subject we know best is ourselves.I decided to elect many images as an inspiration for each different self portrait.I intended to be diverse when electing the images so one can see all the different sides of a person, and how what one perceives at first is not always what it is.The idea of media and manipulation is also included within.
This is the first image I elected to draw.In the final product its a full body shot.I chose this picture because I perceive it as my determination face.It is also an image in which society would consider me beautiful
