I am taking a portrait class on Friday mornings at the Maine College of Art (MECA) in Portland Maine. Using materials I have never used like pastel and charcoal powder to capture the live model. It's great fun and I am pushing myself way out of my comfort zone.
Assignment to use only three colors of pastel and paint to music.
Trying to smudge and blend the pastel.
My first time using pastel. I didn't even smudge or blend. 
Homework—Each week we get a homework assignment and this was a self portrait with India Ink. Night before class—tired!

Great results, so free and so well composed.
The class sounds so creative. I miss so much here in Moscow school which help me to feel free and joyful, ours seem to me a bit dogmatic..
Your self-portraits are wonderful!
Wow--awesome, Jennifer!
