Life drawing

Well having given up with the video/dvd. I thought I ought to at least try some life drawing.
I attempted some self portraits.  Well what a palava that is! How do artists do that???
Nowhere in my house is a mirror big enough for me to use easily.
The little mirrors all catch me a funny angles, with bizarre foreshortening, and how do you not get the camera in the picture?!  I guess I'll just have to talk someone into photographing me. I prefer to work from photos, the light doesn't alter (cheating I guess), but hey if it's available use it!!! You can't tell me Leonardo wouldn't have had a digital SLR!




I look as cross as I was!
