Self Portrait Gallery

Here are my seven selfies done last week for the "Seeing" section of online instruction Sketchbook Skool.  Each one has a label such as Mirror for images done while looking in a mirror, Contour line for images done in ink without lifting the pen, Photograph for images drawn or painted from photos, and Imagination one in which no reference or aid was to be used.  Media used in these are:  Watercolor, gouache, ink, colored pencil, watercolor pencil.  Instructor for this part of the skool was cofounder of SBS, Koosje Koene, Netherlands.  Danny Gregory of New York City is the other partner.
