First art school project

Sometimes I like to rummage through my old art school projects to reminisce about those days: endless projects, ball of nerves, all-nighters, new friends, and the things I learned about fashion, about business and about myself.

My very first in-class art school project on my very first day of art school consisted of selecting a favorite artist (I chose Picasso), selecting a visual art style used by this artist (I chose cubism), and picking up a pencil (pencil only) and drawing a self-portrait.  The assignment was given in that order and we didn’t know we would be drawing a self portrait until we had given the teacher our selections of artist and style.
