Self Portrait Drawing

I had not done a self portrait since last year and I had not drawn one in many more ...so this attempt was made...I never know what I look like....but always an interesting way to spend the morning....16x20 " China Marker on Bristol Paper

I like these black and white sketches.

You look a little like Van Gogh.

But you also look angry. You don't usually look angry.

Maybe this is the artiste, subconsciously angry with the state of the world.

I suppose, however, a cheerful smiling image might not be serious enough to inspire the respect an artist deserves.

My father did some of the most unflattering self-portraits in the history of painting.

You may not be smiling, but you look really good.
