100 Selfies Project

This project was something I did in March 2020 in the beginning of lockdown. I, like a lot of other people was feeling quite isolated. It just started off as something nice I could do for my friends, a way to start conversations with people I was not able to see in person and wouldn't for a while.

I posted on my instagram story that if anyone had a Selfie they wanted me to draw I would draw it. Over ten days I ended up sketching ten selfies a day, people I didn't know were even reaching out to see if I would draw them. In the hell that was covid and lockdown, it was something I could do to bring my immediate and surrounding community some light.

All sketches were put into one Sketchbook.

All were done with Pencil and Pen.
