Self-Portraits


Tomorrow is my birthday so I figured it's a good time to be indulgent with a couple of recent self-portraits. This first one was during a bit of artist's block last week.


This one grew out of a little sketch of some items on my desk, and morphed as I followed down the page. I was using a new pen, a Micron .005 mm, which has a very thin but very solid line. It forces me to be very thoughtful about each stroke as I'm drawing, which is a good exercise for impulsively sketchy me.

I wish I could barf art supplies. It'd be way cheaper.

Happy belated birthday, Ian!

It looks more like they are falling into his mouth than being barfed out to me. I'm glad I don't eat art supplies. It'd be too expensive!
