Ugh ...

As much as I tend to hate myself and everything I do, working on self portrait is unadulterated hell. I can't stand staring at my ugly mug that long ... whether its in a mirror or reference photos. This piece looks rushed, because it is. I'll have to set up a still life or maybe work on a macro of one of my orchids. Cleanse the visual palette, so to speak.

8"x12" gouache, ink, pastel on 140 cold press.
