Something i haven't done in YEARS is draw a self portrait. tonight i was feeling a little traditional, and a little bored, so voila! it was good practice :)
Hi Courtney! It's great to hear from you! Wow you've got some awesome pieces on this blog (nice digital paintings) I hope everything is going super well for you these days! I'm good (and pretty busy) down here in Toronto. :)
Hi courtney i was led to this picture when "googling" self portrait i need to do 1 for art coursework and yours in particular was really nice. i was hoping you could give me some tips or something because ur work is beautiful.
hi pav, thanks very much for the nice comments :) i guess, for me, the best piece of advice i could give would be: try not to draw an eye or a nose, or hair etc. instead only draw exactly what you see and try not to think to much about making it look like "an eye". just draw the shapes and light and dark values that you see exactly as they are. and also, keep in mind negative spaces. hope that helps :)

Really nice artwork Courtney. I never really had a chance to see much of your stuff back in the Gonq. Wonderful colouring too.
