A self portrait in oil on canvas (b&w) 16x20. This photo was taken one month before my tenth birthday. It seemed like it would be good experience to try and create some life from this photo. It will be a Christmas gift to my dear old mother. I'm sure she won't offer much criticism.

I think what I got in the end was a photo like reproduction. Not usually what I strived to do.

I really grew to dislike this photo. Steven wrote in another thread:
