Self Portrait in Biro


Self Portrait in Biro
30.5 cm (w) x 43 cm (h), blue biro on cartridge paper.

As with most of my biro drawings, I am mainly concerned with form and structure rather than the tones or colours observed.

This drawing shows me with white hair, white skin, white jumper, and white shirt - which looks a bit funny. I was happy with the expression of the various forms within the drawing however - the nose, ear, eyes, shirt collar, jumper over my shoulders, neck, lip, etc.

All these forms are expressed without tone, colour, or effects of light. I am not trying to avoid using these qualities as such, but I do want to work efficiently, and I want to concentrate on what is most important.
