This might be fun.
I invite everyone to participate in an online Self-Portrait exhibition.
Just about every artist has attempted the self-portrait. I think Van Gogh and Rembrandt were masters of the Self-Portrait. I believe the Self-Portrait would make an excellent theme for a very interesting exhibition.
I have done about 5 or 6 over the years, some I have lost, or possibly discarded. It would have been interesting to see them collectively, to view the changes in style, mood, etc.
This painting was done in the first month or two during the eight months I was studying in Italy. It was different from anything I had ever done in both colour palette and the handling of the watercolour (dry brush). It was a life-changing experience, perhaps that is the answer to why.
So dig through your work, and find a self-portrait to "hang" in our online gallery.
