self portrait

I guess this is the master piece of my work, 45 hours of hard labor lol.  No really i have never worked so hard in my life on one piece before.  This piece pushed my limit of attention and skill.  This was done in my 3rd and the hardest year so far.  The medium of this portrait is pastel and a little pencil for detail.

What class did you have to do this for? I think that it is amazing! Pastel is challenging for most people but it looks like you accomplished it. Out of curiosity is the background colored with pastel as well or is that the color of the paper you used?

It's all pastel as well as the background( the background took close to 4 hours) the whole piece took 45 hours in all. The class was drawing 2, thanks for the comment
