A kidney stone, coupled with an infection has set me back five days – two trying to soldier through the pain, and three pursuing medical answers. Anyway, I’m on the mend, tired already of this foray into self-pity. Tomorrow, I keep telling myself, is a new day. (Image my own)

I love these VJ! This sounds like such an interesting challenge. I hope you’ll share your whole two weeks’ worth once you’re done with them. From what I see here already, I know you’re going to have a fabulous collage of images once you’re done!

Thanks, VJ. The drawings plus colour are great. And it looks like fun. I can’t wait to try it.
I just started two weeks of Sketchbook Revival – free art workshops online and I am especially enjoying blind contour drawing!!

Okay, I’ll try. Does one close the eyes or look in a mirror?

Look in the mirror and concentrate on your face. Don’t look at the page.

I love this, VJ! In Kindergarten for my kids, they draw a self-portrait every month. It’s a fascinating exercise in self-awareness at that age — and maybe beyond!
