Artist's Comments

vanity is a curse.

this is just a quickie. i played a little with the contrast on the comp so it's not as dark as this.. i did it with charcoal and white house paint, and i don't know what to do with it. -so if i decide to paint over it at least i've got it here.

like princess said, i think you caught some extraordinary emotions in this one.
i like to think i know you pretty well. and i think it suits you.
one thing that caught my eye was the scribbly white lines in your hair. how very bosch of you.

thank you muchly. don't you know of my grey hairs?

well you're much too nice to me, but I do think the emotions in this suit me. Kinda scared, anxious, observing and caring at the same time. :confused: i think.

i do now. old woman. /dusts off

theres a beauty and a modest selfconfidence in there. what you put under the lines is the most important.
i think a self portrait is a great way of showing the real self.
ones emotions, strengths and weaknesses come to life much better when you do them yourself.

hmm, I think that since you used so much shadowing in the background I would instead make yourself a little lighter, maybe more pronounced values rather than one dark painting?

Why do you wear that stupid man suit?
