Self Portrait in Style of Renoir

Trying again!!  Pastels are new to me and I am no Renoir!

I think I look like Harvey Keitel in that picture. It is something about the eyes!!

 

Yet another Self-Portrait

Surprise we have a(n unexpected) final project in my art class. The rest of the class is doing self porttraits and since I haven't really ever worked with color in drawing I decided to try and do one too. We are supposed to be doing an image in the style of. I chose Renoir, but honestly my lack of facility with pastels means there is not style of anyone visible. I think I will have to do a few different versions!  Here is what I have so far. (I may need non oil pastels so I can blend.)
