Deconstructive Self-portrait
In this
self-portrait I deconstructed my personal narrative. The four parts are what
defines me in both others and my opinion. I chose to depict my relationship
with my mom gaining inspiration from a phone call I had with her. I used my
dyslexia as another source of inspiration. In the other two, I depicted a piece
of jewelry I wear all the time and dependability, which represents my
personality. I used oil paints on Masonite using palate knives and some brush
work. In terms of deconstruction, I wanted to choose aspects of myself that are
more narrow and broad. As of now there are two more abstract and more realistic
paintings. I think it would strengthen the set if they were all one or the
other.
