For my portrait, I just found a picture of myself from I think right around Christmas this past year. I live traced the image with the gray scale option selected. The picture was pretty boring just in black and white, so I decided that I would live paint it in some parts. I found a nice set of swatches that contained the cool blues that I used. I just tried to match the values the best I could. Then I just colored the letters on my sweatshirt for some contrast.
