EXPERIMENTAL DRAWING PORTFOLIO Drawing of a portrait. VIDEOS

Ethereal marks on a child mark their internal spaces forever.

In the investigation of ambidextrous drawing and blind drawing of a portrait,  with the use of memory,  the following have come to light: 
+The brain uses both sides at the same time, as I move both hands the only confusion was caused by orientation, either of the angle of the head, or the page or the space, this when seeing or drawing blind, the problem remained. 
+The memory only aided in the placing of shadows using geometry,  the drawings did not improve, but became more abstract and the portrait began to resemble the self more than the subject, especially when using memory only, and forced repetition. I guess one knows ones face best and subconsciously draw it and my proportions got worse. I guess that in the repetition complacency set in, not in the zone? Lack of concentration due to multi tasking?  There is something to be said about the original. Cannot redo or replace.   Marking the internal space without.
