Rec'd on 👤 A SELF PORTRAIT YOU’VE MADE

I drew this for a project a few years ago based off a photo of myself at 4 and my god, that’s a lot of emotion for four. The melodrama is a lot yet it has persisted. Along with the belief that one misplaced clip will fix a bundle of unkempt hair.
It’s the portrait that captures my essence the best.

My profile pic

I found this photo of myself circa ~1994 and loved my energy in it. It’s a tight crop from a larger photo that included my parents. Not sure if this was genuine or a bit of a pose (I can be a ham) but the ennui captures more of my internal energy as an adult than I felt as a kid. Because while I’m a pretty hopeful, positive person, this photo is also how the world - and the experience of being a person in it - can make me feel at least once a day.

DOING AN INTENTIONAL PHOTOSHOOT OF YOURSELF ONCE A YEAR

I started doing this when I was 30. there is always something interesting born from these images. years from now, I will step away, far enough away to see a pattern emerge from the chaos.
