Self Portrait Processs

This is my self portrait that I painted for my watercolor class. I wanted to show how I went from the drawing to the final painting. In some art books they show a step by step and its so ridiculous. They will start with a drawing, then a light wash, and then a fully rendered painting. It only takes 3 steps? Oh wait it doesn't. This painting took me ten hours to finish, and it was just homework. How many people do you know that spend ten hours on one assignment? I am not a fan of painting people so this is a challenge. I am getting better. It was also a bit of a breakthrough. I think it's a way to better develop my techniques and rhythm.
Thanks for listening. <3
