Artwork I've Created: Colored Pencil Self-Portait


This is a self portrait I created with colored pencils a couple months ago. I finally wrangled it away from my art teacher after she kept it hung up for over a month. It took me about a week to complete. 

First I printed out my reference photo -->
and drew on grid lines.  Then I cut my drawing paper and drew on grid lines proportional to my picture. Then I sketched out my face and some details. I used burnings and cross hatching methods to shade and color myself.
This was my reference photo vs the finished product!
