I've been working on a self-portrait for the last few weeks. I didn't take any process photos, unfortunately. I've been thinking about this portrait for a while now. It represents how I was feeling about my job most of this year.
I did something about it though, and now I have embarked onto a new and exciting career and consequently I don't feel like this anymore.
But, I had to get this selfie out of the way.
Yes, I know it's upside down...I haven't decided if this is the final version or not...probably not. So I'll show it right side up when it's officially finished.
This is acrylics on a 10"x10" canvas.
Such a wonderful portrait, Terry. I have worked on portraits when feeling a certain way and if I go back to them, when I feel differently, I am unable to recapture the previous feeling -- and sometimes that is fine :)
ReplyDeleteYou definitely succeeded in capturing the feeling! Good work!
