thank you very much, richard…. not quite happy with this one… :\

lips always turn out fatter and fuller and sexier in my paintings… ;P
and the eyes, bigger and brighter… ;P

you will be seeing lots more of my self portrait for awhile… doing a group exhibit of self portraits in september… please bear with me… and thank you so kindly for your sweet compliment… :D

awww…. so sweet… thank you very much, estelle…. : )

thank you so much, barbara….
i started with the mouth ( i know it’s a strange way to start a piece ;P )... and worked my way out so the cropping happened unintentionally … it actually gave me hard time finding place for each feature… ;P

p.s. saw your portrait back on mike’s portfolio…. is that a tattoo on your cheek? cute~ :D

thank you so much for the kind compliment, r…. what does r stand for? ;D

thank you so much, vestque…. you do very creative art… : )

thank you so so kindly, colin…
usually i enjoy titling my paintings and come up with a verse of two for them too… but this one, i am not too happy with it at all… and no words came to me… “maybe crimson and gold” sounds cool… : ) thank you so much again…

ummmm…. not really, but thank you thank you, mike… :\

thank you so much, bev…. (don’t tell anyone, but i am not happy with this ;P … and it worries me a bit because i am gonna have to do a several more self portraits for an exhibition in september…)

i don’t know… i just do it… ;P
thank you so much, gregory… very sweet of you… : )

oooo julian~ love your comment… very transgressive words from the maestro… i’m imagining a boat ride on honey at an amusement park (disneyland in particular), but that won’t work… can you imagine the bee stings? haha…
.

thank you so so much, robert… :D

are you talking about triple self portrait?
my lady’s are not me…. a bit of me in most of ‘em since people tell me that most of them look like me… most are created by my hand… right hand… : ) and i used to wear honey colored contact lenses just for the looks… and still have unopened packs… : ) thanks chet…

thank you so much for your beautiful compliment, sam… :D

aww… i am so touched, tammy… what beautiful words… i thank you so sincerely… thank you….

i usually start with one of the eyes…. usually don’t block in the face shape… just start with one eye and work my way out, but this one, i don’t know why i started with the lips… and it is very awkward looking for me, still…

anyhow, thank you again, tammy… : )

marilyn, thank you so much for the kind words… sometimes there’s no particular reason, you’re just not happy with the result… but this piece i started with my lips (usually i start with the eyes), and it threw me off… had hard time with the placement of other features… thank you so much
