Extension Project 1 - Reflections in Water

This activity is similar to Project One, in that it involves drawing reflections of yourself as well as a great deal of other very complex modes of depiction.
Your site for this project may be the bathroom where you will find reflections in water from a sink or bath. It may be your pool, a lake or a river nearby that provides you with an adequate, recognisable reflection of your face....

- trying to get a decent photo of this drawing is harder than it was to actually draw.....frustrating, because I know it is not such a great drawing,
but it DOES look a little better in reality than it does here!!!
