I made a self portrait in PoD class on Monday. I think it looks weird... Kinda like how I would look like with green hair and huge eyes. But in a way it would look awesome I guess, walking around with green hair which I don't think I'll be trying anytime soon ...unless it's a wig xD (I think I'm getting off topic, sry Dx)
Anyway, I made my self portrait outside of class, by the lakeside. It was easier to find materials too. The self portrait is made out of leaves for the hair, parts of the eyes and the tongue. The eyes and tongue are both different 'trimmed' leaves, yellow colored leaf for the tongue and dark brown for the eyes.
Initially when I made my portrait I didn't think about sticking on a leaf-tongue but it seemed plain, being all grey and green, so I added the tongue. It seemed less dull that way anyway. I decided to use leaves for the hair as it was a coincidence that i saw the bush had really long leaves which was perfect for using as hair in my portrait. The eyebrows were made from yellow flower petals, also pasted in to add more color to the portrait. The shirt was made by shading the paper over the pebbled floor by the lake.
I have to admit it really does look like my shirt o_O I didn't take a photo of it before the leaves wilted (really smart of me =_=) so the photos I'll be posting will be slightly different from my first, ever so slightly.
p.s. I was supposed to write an essay so i have no idea if this counts as one ._.
I hope it does...
