Description
Yes, this is a self portrait I did as a part of a series of works on heavy duty strathmore paper. I tried a multitude of media and techniques on these papers. This piece even had sand, glue acrylic, watercolor, inks and more. I used a photograph of myself as I posed outside a brick building in Boston, Massachusetts. These works done in 1975 were done while I was working a full time job as a type designer for Compugraphic Corporation and they were my fine art respite. Such a long time ago.
I can not remember what happened to the original, but this image was made from a scanned slide I had in my archives. This predates my years at Massachusetts College of Art, but I was still heavily involved in the arts and graphic arts at this time.
