That is a tricky question, not because of insulting anyone, but because of vanity!
I love Stephen Gjertson's work. Wow. But he is SO clear. I would not want MY face that clear.
If I were to have a portrait painted of myself though, it would have to be someone I could twist & manipulate so that I could look exactly as attractive as I wish I were! That is highly unlikely so I may have to paint one myself. Can I still call it a self-portrait if it is more fantasy than reality?
