Self Portrait Improvement

Self Portrait - June

Self Portrait - February

The first portrait I drew for the Don't Linger project was a self portrait drawn in February.  By the end of the project in June, I realised that my drawing skills had developed so much that I felt I should re-create this drawing.  I was very pleasantly surprised by the contrast between the two drawings.

Oil paint self portrait

Self Portrait in oil paint with fine liner text (under toilet seat)

At the beginning of the toilet seat project I experimented with different ways of creating the portraits, including oil paint.  I felt that my skills with pencil were much stronger than oil paint, so didn't take the oil paintings any further than one self portrait.

An experiment to see how the artwork would look placed atop a real toilet - perhaps in future I could create these portraits with slogans as stickers to be stuck under the lids of public toilets as a form of activism.
