The Latest Assignment

We started a drawing class on Sunday afternoons while we were still taking our night class.  We have today off for the Memorial Day holiday, so we're working on our homework assignment for next Sunday.  The assignment is self-portraits - profile, 3/4 or full face.  I'm working on the 3/4 and IT'S REALLY HARD!  I say that a lot:)  Anyhow, in spite of measuring like crazy, mine looks awful.  Jim looked at it and said, "It looks like you.  And I mean that in a good way."  That totally cracked me up, so I decided to take a short break and complain to you guys.  Back to work.  I hope you're having a beautiful Sunday!

Hahaha! Portraits are so much more fun when you don't have to get a likeness. It seems if you're off the tiniest bit, you wind up looking like a sister or mother.

Love your sense of humor! Complaining is always allowed on an art blog.


Hope you and Jim have a wonderful holiday, Candy!

Candy, Self portraits are so hard to do... I belong to an online art forum and the challenge was a self portrait.. OMG! I did one from a portrait of about 30 years ago. LOL ! But I'll attempt a more recent one..soon as I get up the courage. !
