Self Portrait of the Day #2
Well after throwing up profusely at the sight of my previous self portrait, I began work on today's painting. I have to say, it is a tremendous improvement, although still not anything to cheer about. I'll be glad to have that hideous one off the top of this page (although I actually liked how the Operation guy turned out...) and replace it with this mediocre one. The pose is still entirely lifeless, and I didn't capture the expression too well (and let's not even begin on the neck!) but it's so much better than yesterday's. And considering it's my 2nd portrait ever in acryllic paint, I'm satisfied that I'll be better by the end of the semester.
I was going to say something here about the State of the Union Address, but I just can't anymore. Bush angers me too much, and I'm drained from leaving the news on while I did that painting. So forgive me for not inserting a long and harsh political speech here and just know that I am very disgusted with him.
