Hello Artist Corner! =D
For school, i need to make a self portrait in the style of an artist, he doesn't have to be famous.
So, does anyone have some suggestions because i don't know much about those artists.
If you have one, please post a picture with it.
The drawing can be made on the computer with photoshop or whatever, or just on a paper with paint
*NOTE: My drawing skillz aren't great xD

Lol? 0-0

I like Van Gogh's portraits, their kinda grainy due to the paint but seem to have a fair amount of detail. If your gonna do a self portrait, every second look at what your drawing. DOn't try to memorize and do it, doing portraits isn't hard if you pay attention to detail.

What?

he needs to make a self portrait.. thats a self portrait made by picasso, so this could be the style he can make his in.

I like using bright coloured pencils in my portraits rather then pencils. Sometimes I even use rather obscure shapes and build up the shape of the face from that.
This is one I did in class bored to kinda show what I mean. Quickie of my friend who sits next to me. So it's not a "self portrait" per say but you get the point.


Here's another piece I absolutely love. It was probably done using a graphic tablet but you can easily reproduce something similar on paper. Just the shapes and his line work alone leave me in awe.

Another artist I admire. His work is so sick it makes your own work feel like shit. I'm not sure how I came across him, I think it was Priam who linked it once but never the less I am more then grateful. Just love it.
