Sideways etchasketch portrait

This was my very first sideways self-portrait, and I am pleased as to how it came out. Also entered in Scholastics, did not make it to regionals. None of my etch pieces made it anywhere. Poopers! It's ok though, at least it gave me the proper incentive to make more etchasketch self-portraits. This is one of my favorite pieces I have done on my etchasketch so far. I will feel bad once this has to be erased as well. Approximately 2-3 hours was devoted to the creation of this piece.
