    …like the feel of this painting, the contrast between the bird & yourself…

    overall its so ambiguous, you just want to stare into it. its stillness hints at a general peacefulness & knowing:) birds are a fave of mine, i have a small one in flight tattooed on my outer ankle.

    Amazing self portrait Davey. I’ve noticed from your comments on Ange’s page that you are a make up artist. I’m also a make up artist – though I manage to make a living from photogaphy these days.

    Hi Davey,

    good to see your emerging self portraits and I hope you’re getting them displayed as you feel confident. Maybe the Archibald?

    Keen to see your work as it changes with you.

    This is a wonderful compositon. Especially like the black bird. Very well done. This is another favorite of mine.
