Self Portrait 4

Share

My friend Jerel sporting a self portrait mask I made out of cardboard and color pencil. about 6 months old, part 4 in a 12 self portait-mask concentration. Hope this isn't bending the photograph rule.

Great!

Like the hair and overall style of the piece and loved the right eye/right side of the glasses reminded me of "The Persistence of Memory". I like the surrealist vibes as well as the hair, there is something about it that drags your eyes toward it and is interesting. Also the hat's 3-D-esque effect is quite realistic, though I think it may have looked more striking from a different angle possibly? I would give it a 10 but personally I'm not a fan of the lips, there is something about them, they look almost out of place, or looking at it again, it may be the combination of both the way the nose was drawn paired with the lips, I'm not exactly sure. But there is something a little odd about it in my opinion. Overall though you should be proud, great work...

And also a quick question, did you layer the cardboard?

NeonMonster responds:

Thank you for the thorough critique. As far as the cardboard in the masks go, I had drawn my portraits on paper, glued them to cardboard and cut it out.
