Artist's Comments

Tangent "art". Back in the beginning of the semester we were given a giant-ass piece of paper, a ruler, and the order to take a picture of ourself to make, uh... Bigger.

I kinda like how I did with this. Lots of energy and direction in my strokes. I'm not nearly as mean as I look here, though.

And I wasn't exaggerating the size of my nose here. It really is massive.

I actually saw this in the art room, and I instantly recognized it as you. I was also VERY impressed.

The composition is excellent, especially the angle of the shot, and the use of separate pencil strokes is a brilliant technique.

Oh, and you look hot. Any time you can create an excellent composition AND make yourself extremely attractive is the sign of a true artist.

I especially like the little stash hairs you swiped on there.

Hey, looks pretty good. You should try to use some more shading to give it a bit more volume- the entire side of your face looks kinda like a flat surface.

It's tough to make it look proportional when you're enlarging a picture, especially on such big paper. I think ya did a decent job of it. Just try to go at the shading a bit more aggressively and you'll be golden.

Oh, and nice job on the hair.
