You Want Me To Do WHAT?!?!?!?!

I almost threw in the towel on art journaling because of a recent prompt. I was challenged to draw and not only just draw, but to create a picture of ME! I don't draw. That is why I scrapbook and stamp. I don't have artistic ability (or so I thought). I mean, my entire family can draw, but it skipped me. I will never be as good as them, so why bother. Once again, I had to get over myself and just give it a go. So, here is my self portrait:
 I totally drew a grid on my paper and penciled a face. Do my eyebrows now rock! The one on the right really could be my eyebrow. HA!
 Then came the fun part -- Adding color! I had to draw in my blue eyes and then had fun with my hair.  Well, my friend, Erin liked it so much that she asked me to do her. I told her that it would not be that much different than mine because I am a bit limited on what I can do at this time skill wise. This is what I came up with for her:
Until next time -- Happy Crafting!
