Am I Blue (Self-portrait)

I love to draw! I have been drawing all my life. I feel like Art is an essential subject in school, even though it’s an elective. Drawing for me is a vacation from the hectic world of school. This self-portrait shows me as the serious student I am. I picked blue for the background because it’s my favorite color, not because I am unhappy. I think of blue as a peaceful color. I am generally a pretty happy person.
