"I just do art because I'm ugly and there's nothing else for me to do." - Andy Warhol

We've started doing portraits in art, and It's amazing to see a class full of girls do whatever they can to convince the teacher not to make them do a self portrait. The thing is they're all the sweetest, most talented and beautiful girls you'd ever meet. For a while I couldn't understand it, however, it is a really strange thing to have to look at your own face for a whole term. To dissect your features into proportions until you're left asking the question "Do I really look like that?" Honestly It's one of the worst things you could do for you confidence. Stay oblivious to how far apart your eyes are, how long your nose is in relation to your ears, and how thick your upper lip is compared to your bottom lip.
