Self Portrait

The history of self portraits go way back. I shan't dwell on those now.
But on what is the reason for self portraits?

It is important to know about yourself afterall. But self portraits are more than just your own reflection in the mirror.

Because the superficial is as important as the profound.
In fact the profound can only be derived from the superficiality in a self portrait. Without an outer, there won't be an inner.





Self Portrait, a series of 4, pencil and charcoal on paper.
