I understand your issue with your "pr-established" picture of your own face, I do have the same problem, and I think I do have it also with people I know (friends, relatives...). That's why I love drawing them, of course. It's always such a great challenge, and with Cécile, for instance, a way to keep looking at what catches my attention in her face, and still be amazed.<BR/><BR/>Merci, Cécile. Je vais essayer de finir ce tout petit portrait blanc. Il y a une ou deux choses que j'aimerais corriger avant de le poster, mais je le ferai, promis.armelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04404724159548474196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-621327003609551346.post-87223492432607326042008-05-31T12:25:00.000+02:002008-05-31T12:25:00.000+02:00PS.

J'espère que tu posteras cet autre petit portrait blanc que tu as peint la semaine dernière, je trouve que les deux forment un ensemble intéressant.<BR/>Baisers.Cécilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11265225712695314988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-621327003609551346.post-48960211706077444752008-05-27T20:16:00.000+02:002008-05-27T20:16:00.000+02:00Wonderful self-portrait!!

You are right, they are convenient because we have ourselves available right there to sketch but is the" taking in" of the information that I find difficult. Something happens to me when I try to convey and capture my own features.. I have no problem observing and sketching anything or anyone else but when it comes to myself I'm "blinded" by my own self image, the one I pr-established in my head, and it gets in the way. Its frustrating actually.<BR/><BR/>I can see that you don't have that problem at all. You did a beautiful job on yours!!Alicia Padrónhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310467713291422507noreply@blogger.com
