Inspiration, Dedication: applying the makeup

 

DSC02553

Started a self portrait for a submission in April. It’s a strange one, I feel like I’m looking in a non reflective mirror doing my hair and applying the makeup as usual. First days work below: acrylic on canvas 60 x 30 cm. Submission has to be in by 1st April. Some of the music inspiring this today has been Jack White, Bo Diddley, Roxy Music and Lou Reed

      Hi Hel
      I’m going to submit it to Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year, not that it will go anywhere but just to make me focus on a theme and a deadline!
