Self Portrait II



2020

MEDIUM: gouache on corrugated cardboard

DIMENSIONS: 8.5 in x 8 in

This painting was a stylized portrait of myself with the purpose of experimenting with color, lighting, and the structure of human faces. The face consists of various geometric shapes in order to study the general structure of my face and how it relates to the light. I painted on cardboard out of curiosity to see how my gouache would appear on darker paper. This piece was self-directed.
