Light and Shadows

If you couldn't tell this is a self portrait I don't blame you. This was an interesting project that I was hoping would turn out better than it did. We had to sit in front of a mirror in a completely dark room with a light hitting one side of our face. Using black paper and white colored pencil we were supposed to focus on the highlights and shadows cast on our face. I really enjoyed doing this portrait and maybe I will go back later and try this again. I am a beginner at drawing, no doubt, so maybe next time it will turn out better.
