Self-portrait

[Cindy Procious]

Lovely, Alex! I have to laugh, because my 3 hour self-portrait is so hideous, it will never see the light of day.

My husband came home and I heard him walk into the studio and say (under his breath) "ugh." Then he said out loud - "Er, it's nice, but, looking at it makes me feel I'm in trouble. You look SO mad."

I should hang it over his desk!

Thank you, Cindy and Sharon!

Sharon, you asked about the Tyng look--I think it's akin to what Cindy's husband described:

My husband wanted a portrait of me to put in his study. He said that, of the two I did from life, he liked this one better, but I think the expression on my face didn't quite match his idea of how a wife should be looking at her husband. At any rate, it's been in the closet ever since.
