Self-portrail of the artist with a Hawk Skull

Self-portrait of the Artist with a Hawk Skull, by Mary Stebbins Taitt.
I am taking my second-ever water-media class and did this self
portrait in water color for a take-home assignment, but it doesn't
look much like me, even though all the parts are relatively similar.
I like it anyway (though it is not without flaws).
