Self-Portrait #9? Is that right? It feels like I've done a million. I can't actually picture making 365 of these. I decided to try a little conte crayon for a quick 4x6 bathroom mirror drawing. It only took about 10 minutes until I got kicked out for a bathroom break so this is the result. I always forget about how much I used to love conte crayon. It's crazy how quickly my hand remembers what to do when I pick up a medium that I haven't touched in years. I like to get enough black on the page and then use a click eraser to just smear the tone into something that looks recognizable. This is what my face feels like today.

I'm so with you on the templates - I've tweaked my CSS endlessly, and if you keep an eye on my blog you'll notice a gazillion tiny changes that I sometimes change right back. I find it's best to keep it simple, though.
And your self-portrait project sounds cool - I'd do it but I'd get sick of my face... :)
