A0 Fine Art Self Portrait

Started of by framing a piece of A0 paper with masking tape to give myself a clean border when i finish. I then Create my Grid with 2cm x 2cm squares. Quickly, I sketch out the frame of my face and map out where the facial features will be and light and dark tones.

Using soft black charcole, I get down the ground for my portrait.

It begins to come together by gently adding the facial features and using a rubber to create marks travelling in the right direction, this give the sense of shape and structure. 

 Done, Well I just need to do the shirt. :)
