I haven’t had enough concentrated time or focus
to work on any sustained projects in the studio lately.
But I’ve been doing
quick,
single-session
self-portraits
which always make me think
of college
(does every professor,
in every studio class
have a self-portrait assignment?).
They are such good practice, though;
that direct observation
and attempt to see past
what I “know”
about my face
can be so refreshing.

  1. Lovely spontaneity. The light on your neck, the brown on your shirt and blue background are beautiful!!

  2. I love doing projects that have such a reminiscent feel. If I paint self portraits I always think of the ones I've done before and how much I've changed.
