February Photo-a-day : Day 10 ~ Self-Portrait

Here’s a silly self-portrait that I did as a challenge from another artist.

And, here’s a digital photo collage I did several years ago.

Below are my first attempts at "Scanner Art"!...with a little digital manipulation because I just can't leave well enough alone. :)

This one is a clip form a painting video I made.

…and I made this one after my goldfish died.

Many times I make self-portraits when I am feeling vulnerable or sad. It seems to help me work through things.…

I don’t know what I was working through here! HAHA! This is me as an M&M….

Finally, a self-portrait of me (the redhead) and my best friends from high school…all born in the year of the monkey. I made this to celebrate our 40th birthdays.

  1. Such a wonderfully wide array of self portraits! I love them all!

    We must have been posting our portraits on our blogs at the same time. I just put mine up. But...it's not nearly as colorful or happy as yours!

  2. My goodness, these are all terrific and very clever. I can tell which monkey is which. Great likenesses.
