Self-portrait

Self-portrait

This is the only serious self-portrait I’ve ever painted of myself. Probably because I am a very private person, and I’m not that thrilled with the guy looking back at me in the mirror. : >) But I post it because it’s my second 100% digital painting. The first being the Listening House landscape.

0s and 1s on hard drive.

Self-portrait belongs to the following groups:

Complex Simplicity of Art, All Things Poetic, Artistic, Philosophical, Capturing Emotion, Creative, Talented, and Unknown, Impressionist Art, Live, Love, Dream and Safe Haven Available for sale as

Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints and Canvas Prints

    what a fabulous self portrait….love the way you have placed yourself off to one side which is unusual but leads the eye around the painting – great art again! oh also the Blue is a fabulous contrast

    Thanks Linda. Pushing myself to the edge seemed to convey how I feel about life most of the time. : >)

    Wow stunning portrait!!! It is so lively!!!!

  • thepaintedsoul replied

    Thanks. It was a good exercise for me. Figured if I could draw myself with a mouse. . . well it might help me to paint with a brush a little better. Cheers!

    Thanks Lynda. I feel like there’s still so much to learn about color.

    It’s excellent… I have been away and I see you have been spreading your wings here on RB! It’s a good experience, isn’t it? :)

  • thepaintedsoul replied

    Thanks Gail. Yes, I am spreading my wings. . .thanks to Susan Bergstrom. She has told me to jump out here in the wide open and test my work in these groups. To quit hiding. : >) The advice seemed sound, so I’ve been trying to do just that. God bless Susan for pushing me…LOL

    Oh my gosh,
    This is a digital painting? No paint, ink or pencil? All along I thought your avatar was a oil or something other than digital. This is a beautiful work… I just wonder… how did you do that.

  • thepaintedsoul replied

    Sometimes things work out. . .sometimes they don’t. You won’t ever see the ones I botched. : >)

    Glad you like it.

    That’s why my kids used to like me to wear glasses, because they said my eyes were too scary. : >)
