MOB Continued...












I am working on finishing this self-portrait before the 30th. I want to submit it to a portrait competition at The Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery (check it out, all you portrait artists!) I am making a frame that will include all these photos of my daughter trying on wedding gowns. The frame will be quite ornate - I have a picture of a Mexican retablo with a beautiful frame - I am going to copy the shape of that frame and fill it with these images of Kaitlyn and some flowers, birds, and leaves...and I think some images of me when I was younger...
You know, Mirror Mirror on the Wall, and All.
This piece is quite a bit about letting go of EGO...
