WIP: Abstract Self Portrait

Posted on September 1, 2015 by pam

The two pictures you see are one in the same. I took an old self portrait to a figure drawing session with the purpose of painting right on top of it.  First I turned it upside down so I wouldn’t be distracted with the old portrait. When I got done with the figure, I turned it right side up again just to see what the old portrait looked like.  I decided I liked the abstract self portrait even better and will continue to work on it as a portrait. Somehow, though, I want to try to keep a bit of the figure in it as well.abstract self portraitabstract by me (1)

    Does anyone know how I ended up with the text being underlined? I didn’t do it on purpose. How do I undo it?

    Plus, how do I get my “about pam” section from in the middle of the page. It’s already up at the top. Guess I better practice blogging more.
