Principles and Practice of Illustration Part Two (Self-Portrait). Planning out my Self-Portrait.

Here I have tried to Incorporate all the drawing tools I love to work within my self-portrait making them the background and creating a pattern which was an idea born from my artist research on myself.
As you can see from my research I have decided to add the bun and a scarf since it’s always something I am wearing and something other people think about when asked to draw me.

This is obviously just a mock-up of ideas but I feel like this is a good starting point as it combines lots of elements of my research and feels like my own personal style.
