Models are hard to find

Rembrandt, Van Gogh, and Watkins.  We all had our self as a model.  Rembrandt did so many self portraits from the time he was a young man of 18 to the old man of 70.

Van Gogh did 37 self portraits, including the one ear painting. Me not so much, I've done a few this  one is from a photo.

I got a gray paper and septa pencils, so right away I began to paint myself. The use of the white calk pencil for the highlights and the charcoal for the shadows.

So try to get your self on paper and have fun with it. Keep your brushes wet!
