Ray with camera

Picture makers often make self portraits from time to time. I am no different, I guess it is because we are often making pictures for others. If we desire a picture of ourselves  we  have to model for it ourselves. We are also cheap models. I have made self portraits in other mediums such as painting and etching. This portrait was done using a mirror. Artists Such as Rembrandt Van Rijn painted self portraits all his life portraying himself in different ways. This invites us into the artists psyche and history.

I know many of you are wondering, what am I thinking? OK, I will tell you. I was actually looking in the mirror at myself and thinking about you.

  1. I love the graininess of this photo and the intense look you have.

  2. By the way, I tried to subscribe to your feeds and neither one worked.
