Self Portrait

Since the class is doing self portraits right now - I thought I'd do one just for fun. This one really went fast. We watched a De Niro movie and I painted and the painting was done before the movie finished. Spousal unit Don says I must have found my style. It is severe and dark and matches my mood at the moment, There is a bit of flash glare - but generally this is close to what it looks like.

That's fantastic.

Thanks, Beccy - I can see a lot wrong with it, but since I am trying to force myself to loosen up, I am fighting the urge to "fix" it.

I like it, but it looks a little like Doris. I want to cleanse my mind and look at it again after I get the Strnad thought out of my head.

I agree - It reminds me a lot of Doris too. But then again we are related!

I can't believe you painted that so quickly.
