Continuing with Self Portraits

Clavicle Self Portrait, graphite in 8.5 x 11 sketchbook, 1/31/09

I drew a different sort of self portrait yesterday, this time drawing just my neck and shoulders. I never had much by way of cleavage, but I always thought I had a nice set of collarbones on me.

I drew this with some woodless graphite pencils that I got as a “free gift” attached to a sketchbook I once bought (I only have HB and 9B). They have a different feel than regular wooden pencils as you really can’t get as sharp as a point. I feel a lot more “sketchy” when drawing with these and they are a lot of fun.
