    This is excellent Andy! I working on an acrylic self portrait right now too and I love the way you went about it. I have been frustrated with not being able to get smoothe flesh tones but you really made the medium work for you.. Wow, love all the flesh tone colors and detail in the shirt!!

    Gosh, what an amazing style. Especially on your face. But then your perfect eyes pull it all together.
    I am learning so much, just staring at your technique. fav.

    gorgeous everything, andy, as usual….
    looks like a different person from your avatar pic : )
    love the way you’ve left the background and shirt with unfinished look…
    skintone and texture pushes your face out from the rest….
    wonderful self portrait…

    Hi Andy, This works so well on many levels, and wonder if you found it a little ‘daunting’ confronting yourself doing a self-portrait? I know when I did my first one, I felt strange! Great work as always :)

    Don’t rework it – it’s great just as it is! I think it is the contrast in the skin tones that really make this painting ‘buzz’!
