Self-Portrait Day 2020

"International Self-Portrait Day" started on the conceptart.org forums back in 2006 and I've been participating every year since 2008. The goal is to draw a self-portrait, in any style and medium, entirely during November 1st. The logic, I think, was that coming back to the same subject at regular intervals allows you to track your artistic tastes and progress over time, and that you yourself are the one subject that you can always count on to be available to draw.

I worked from a mirror, with an additional piece of photo reference for the lighting.

...I am really overdue for a haircut here.
