This portrait went in a lot of different directions before I settled on the simplest idea. I tried to make it look like I had a ponytail in the background without going for a side angle but I’m not totally happy with how it looks. Finally, I gave myself a red nose and eye bags because I have really bad year-round allergies and I thought it would be a funny/honest depiction of me on a normal day.
