self portrait: 11 years in the making

I created once, when i was 18, a painting of my psyche.
the nude figures in the background i had to paint in my bedroom at home. this a was a bit difficult...trying to paint and pose at the same time. they were nice and fluid and warm hues...
The figure of my face, in the foreground. painted with studio lighting. protrayed by blue hues, colder and distorted. easier to paint and more accurate.

I love and dig this piece. I like the fluidity of the style and the way it portrays the imaginative artist at her best. I like the extreme sincerity in the 18-year old's imaginative endeavour. I like the picture.. I like the psyche ..
