Thought I'd do a self-portrait and had a bit of fun with it. But painting in front of a mirror isn't my cup of tea, though I used a mirror reference for several stages. Instead... I made faces at my camera! 
I began with glazing color. That was the one thing I knew I wanted - lots of fun color. But the jaw was drawn funky. I didn't notice it until I sent a copy to my mom. Even with watercolor, you can fix a problem.
My husband said it captures my personality. It was a hoot doing one as I'd never done one before. I did know, however, that I didn't want a traditional portrait-face.
