Oil Clay Portraits

Clay Portraits

In class we were assigned a small, two-day portrait project. Using our oil clay and a mirror we were to make a small bust of ourselves, making sure to include identifying details. My finished clay portrait was satisfactory in my opinion. Although I had enough time to complete the work, I feel like there was still some work needed to be done to push the likeness of me. I haven't worked much with clay portraits so I actually was somewhat surprised with how well I did on the portrait. Overall I am slightly critical because faces are so hard to accurately portray, especially when it is your own face that you see just about everyday.
