MIRROR SHOWS ANOTHER FACE


Throughout this project I wanted to do regular traditional "self portrait's". It is historically a meaningful exercise, and something photographically that I have always avoided. I had an illustration class in college in which the teacher asked us to draw a self portrait a week. He wanted us to learn how to illustrate how we were feeling, under a traditional portrait guise. I guess by stepping out, and looking at ourselves, we can learn something about ourselves......
Any way, I have a lot of trouble looking at pictures of myself. I love to observe and capture other people through photographs, and I think I do this pretty well but I cannot do that with myself. Something to work on.........
