  1. The self portrait is the ideal subject for an inexperienced artist. If it comes out well, you can congratulate yourself on your improving skills; if it comes out badly, you can congratulate yourself on not actually looking like that.

  4. My husband and I enjoyed the Beyond Van Gogh Immersive Art Show today in Exeter and it was so totally amazing. If any of you have the chance to attend in your cities it is well worth it to enjoy Vincent Van Gogh’s beautiful artwork 🎨🖌️

    introspection

    I realized I haven't posted almost any of my #nudeart #SelfPortraits here on my new account. Since they are an integral part of me: TADA! 😆. Please just look away, if you don't like it.

    Self-reflection isn't always easy and often you see things you don't like. Nevertheless, it's important to see and accept yourself with all your flaws. By making this public, it makes it more real for me and should also encourage others.

  7. Van Leo is the adopted name of Levon Boyadjian (1921-2002) an Armenian Egyptian photographer known for his Hollywood style portraits of celebrities, artists, and military personal. Often he would take these photos for free as a form of self promotion.

    Every day Leo would shut down his shop and dedicate a few hours to taking photographs of himself utilizing different creative props, lighting and costumes.

    "My father used to get angry. He'd tell me: 'Did you make the studio for yourself or the customer? Stop making photos of yourself!'"

    In 1998 he donated 13,000 photographs, 16,000 negatives, and countless documents to the American University in Cairo including over 1,000 self portraits
