Post VIII

I was told during a critique last year that my self portraits are my most powerful and psychological pieces and I've seem to forgotten that because I haven't drawn myself much lately... but I want to start making frequent self-portraits again... this was a quick fifteen-twenty second gesture to start me off.



Here are some paintings by Edvard Munch, the 19th/20th Century artist who is most famous for his painting "The Scream". In his early life he was often consumed with anxiety and this problem was reflected in much of his work. He made a decent amount of self portraits as well.
