A Happy Birthday - Self Portrait

2021

Graphite and pastel on toned paper

15 x 20 inches

This drawing depicts me on my 8th birthday. The piece encompasses my feelings of nostalgia when looking back at childhood pictures. The mix of the realistic face with the sketched clothing represents the blurriness of memory: some parts are clear while others I can’t quite remember.
