Reference PhotoIn ProgressFinal This is my ninth concentration, a selfie I took while skiing in Chamonix, France. This was Easter weekend, which is the last weekend to ski. My mom and dad decided we had to take the opportunity to ski in the Alps. I was stunned that it would be my first time skiing, so I got nervous because the Alps are intense mountains and I had zero idea how to navigate them. It was all good because we got a ski instructor. While learning how to walk up a mountain I got very discouraged because I was unable to get it down. I then became so frustrated I became very frustrated and started to cry - I hope you enjoyed that story-time. I left the instructor and learned how to ski by trial and error, and eventually got off of the bunny hill; the next hill up was a solid 40 degree angle - very scary.
I started this piece hand sketching it in the middle of second period. I actually did 90% of this piece in other classes while instruction was going on - whoops. After I free-hand sketched it perfectly in 20 minutes--to show someone that I don't need to trace to draw a person perfectly--I started on the sky. I used two blues and blended them into the clouds to get a more realistic look. Then I started on the helmet and goggles. While avoiding most of the face I did my jacket and sweater. I mostly avoided the face because I kept on forgetting face prismas at home. I added pink and browns to my face to show depth and rosiness. The yellow on my face is the reflection of my goggles. If I could go back and do something over I actually wouldn't change anything.
