Whilst unwell over the fantabulous/crap valentines period, I was put in a position of not being able/not wanting to leave my hidden bunker that I work in to take photos of strange and wonderful faces. So i resorted to taking photos of my own face on my computer (weird,uncomfortable and very self indulgent!) BUT! I had to paint, so a self portrait it is. I do feel that sometimes my brain is a big fat mess!!! and wanted to kind of show this, a bit like my boys mind is very magical, they are very similar styles, yet totally different to me. Bit like my boy and I I feel. A nice mesh of colourful magic and mess.
