So, like, my art style is very different from realism and I tend not to do anything hugely realistic UNTIL last week happened and my EVIL (jk I like him) Art teacher said we had to do a realistic portrait. I mean obviously we were going to do realistic stuff sooner or later, but this was such a PAIN...

At the same time, however, I know I shouldn't just block realism from my life forever. I don't like it really, but I like to be open-minded to other art styles since that's one of the things that makes art art :)

Anyway, hope it isn't too bad :) This is seriously the third serious realistic drawing I've done in my entire life (I'm not joking. That's how much I avoid realism. Like the plague.)
