Self-Portrait

Dulcie, Age 16

  • Drawing
  • Oil pastel
  • A3 portrait

I was inspired by various digital artworks and their use of bold and vivid colours in place of shadow and wanted to try and replicate that in a tactile medium. I really enjoy working with oil pastel as I love the range and depth of colours available through them. I used this image of myself as I liked the pensive expression and reflective feeling it evokes.
