EDM #56 The self

Portraits of the self are difficult and I think require a real study – doing lots of experiments. Anyway, I enjoyed drawing it and had a splash with the watercolours as well.
Self portraits also expose us in a very public way, which I think prevents me from seeing the subject in an honest way…of course putting this drawing up on a public blog also asks for exposure! There are paradoxes everywhere.
