Self Portrait, Gram-E (Painting #600)


I think a self portrait should tell something about the artist.
So...This tells you something important about me.

There's nothing more special than holding a grandbaby close.

I painted my first self portrait for Painting #500.  Somewhere around Painting #575 I started fretting about needing to do another one at #600. What reference photo would I choose? That's a tough choice... until I came across the right one.

    1. Thanks. It is fun to watch ugly and confusing take shape and become something pleasant.
