Biodegradable stuff only!

Continuing my search on find the answer to this very big question, What is 'Self- Portrait'?. Mr Charles have decided that the entire class (all 26 of us) to do our very own self-potrait with only things you can find around your house (no buying is allowed). So let us begin!

STEP ONE :- take a picture of yourself.

STEP TWO :- Start sketching the shape of your head on to the paper. Once your done start coloring or gluing stuff on the paper and it should look some thing like this.

 I decided to only use things that comes from trees so I choose a paper that was not white ( it's kinds grayish ), the outline for my face are all small twigs that I got from cutting a big tree at my house, my 'curly' hair is made out of dried leaves also comes from the same tree. My T-shirt is made from a special tree bark that comes off on it own and for my background I use small leaves that are still on their branches to give you that natural effect and feel.

*Note:- this is not fully done yet! it is still in the stage of editing and trying stuff on it. Like what Mr Charles said 'you don't have to rush, take your time to finish it'
