Self Portrait Homework

Homework? Yes - homework.  The assignment was to do a self portrait with direct light using black, white and transparent red oxide painted.  You needed to create warms and cools, be aware of soft and sharp edges and think about the paint strokes.
I don't spend much time looking in the mirror so a self portrait was traumatizing. Where did those wrinkles come from? Since it wasn't part of the assignment, I just ignored them.
