Self-Portrait (Again)


Ok - so before i post the final work I thought I would explain my self-portrait in relation to Picasso and my motivations. Firsly, the background was mosaiced in order to represent Cubism, and this incidently shows light and dark very well. Secondly, since Picasso like to look at objects/scenes from multiple perspectives to compose the final image I chose to break my face into different segments/features. I then explored light and dark with different techniques in the segments. A few very bold colours (although not all primary) complete the 'Picasso' look.
