Day 49

This drawing obviously borrows very heavily (ie. it steals) from THIS very famous work by M.C. Escher. My original idea was to portray my hand holding a spoon, which in turn reflected my image. Then one of my students told me about a project she did back in high school, in which she held a Christmas ornament with her image reflected within. Considering that the holiday season is upon us, I figured that this idea would make for a very timely self-portrait...
