What is a Self Portrait?
A portrait of the artist. Usually just shows head and shoulders.
Why do artists
make self- portraits?
Self-exploration in order to make decisions about how to represent him/herself authentically.
For each self-portrait, the artist must ask: What expression, posture, clothing, background, colors, texture, and style best express the real me?
Self-portraits are a good way for an artist to practice rendering different expressions and moods
A way to leave behind an image that will outlive the artist.
A self-portrait can preserve a memory, serve as a gift, and even help an artist further understand him/herself.
Vincent Van Gogh
Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear (1889)
