I've been drawing my face ever since I could. It's not egotism, it's just that I'm the most willing and accessible model I know. I don't like to bother people or make them feel like they are a model. They get nervous and start thinking about what they are doing and how they look. I'll draw people when they are not watching but you can only accomplish so much using that method. For realistic representations I need more time and more stillness.
