Happy Birthday to me(A pencil drawing of my humble self)

in #art5 years ago

Yea it's my birthday again and I promised myself that my birthday this year, I will make a drawing of myself. Not drawn myself before. So this is actually my first ever self portrait.

I was supposed to upload this earlier but I had issues logging in on time. Now it's 11pm here and Since it's not yet 12am, I am still eligible to post about my birthday.🤣

This quick sketch was done with charcoal and graphite pencils
and with a bit of speed because I needed to meet the deadline which was today.

I am super excited that I am alive to witness this beautiful day. I pray that I live to witness more added years to me

Say a prayer for me as well thank you

And hey! how's my self portrait? Hit or miss?

Feed your eyes with the progress shots.

Handsome fella. I am glad you past the progress photos, because even after seeing them I still have no freaking idea how you do all that with a pencil!

Each time man. When you release a new piece I’m thinking “how does he keep getting better? There’s now way he’ll be able to top this one.”

But you, @untimeetuk, have succeeded yourself each time—very impressive sir. Your portraits are some of the best I’ve seen on the blockchain. @splatz.

I’m here now get outta the way...
INCOMING!!

Oh really????😁😁😁😁 I am humbled sir
thanks so much for the nice words. I am really grateful.

You really tried by dedicating a piece to yourself. Most artists hardly have time to make a piece of their own.

Happy birthday in arrears dear brother.

thanks much brother. yea story of our lives. It's one of the hardest thing to do as an artist.
