Description This was done for my AP-2D class in school, our first project was a self portrait, and this is what I came up with, and I'm incredibly happy with it <3

Yeah, it's got errors in it, but I don't think I'd change it lol. Too lazy!

The stars each have their own little personality to them, their own style, and they represent a different aspect of me as a person. This is more of a general representation of me instead of a "perfect self portrait".

My momma pointed out the stars are almost like chakras- but backwards lol.

Drawn entirely in Photo Shop CS2, and yeah, as you can tell I didn't use a reference.

However, I'm more than impressed with how the water and it's reflection on the hand came out <3

Very nice!

I do like the stars, and I really like how you distorted the sun through the glass.

The directional lighting, the folds in the shirt, and the ROYGBIV effect in the sky are also really eye catching.
