Partial Self Portrait

Just thought I’d share my work from my last art lesson of the term with all of you! Since we’re currently having online classes, the task we were set today was a bit different from what we’ve been doing. We were supposed to be doing a painting project, but since that’s close to impossible, we were told to do a portrait instead. But not just any portrait…we had to pick a section of our face, and only draw that part of it, using a specific technique called hatching. Hatching is basically a technique of adding tone and detail to a drawing by using continuous parallel strokes.

I decided to go over my portrait with a pen to give it a more defined look, and to be honest, I’m quite pleased with how it turned out. This break from our regular art activities was quite a nice way to end the term, and it brought some pretty pleasing results as well! Can’t wait to get back to school and see what other projects our art teacher has in store for us…

Happy drawing,
