Color Pencil, Pastels

As a young artist I learned that there is more to art than a picture. I have created a portrait of myself in the form of nature. I thought of doing this because nature is a part of our everyday world and I feel greatly connected and drawn towards it. There are various parts to each person and the same goes for forests and plants that crowd it. My inspiration is nature itself and how beautiful and breathtaking it can be. I used colored pencils and various pastels to create parts of my portrait. I did not color my face because I feel like nature is what gives the world color and the land around us would be lost without it.
