Have you ever been thrown out of your comfort zone? Well that's exactly what happened to me when one of the travelling journals arrived and the theme was self-portraits. Now those who know me know that I don't do "realistic" work. It took me a couple of weeks of procrastination and nerves to pick up the journal and just get it done. I chose a photograph that was taken by Martha from Ayala Art - Martha came all they way up to San Diego to meet me when I was over there in February. It was so lovely to actually meet her in person at long last.
So here is what I did and I'm going to congratulate myself of achieving a not too bad selfie painting (I hope never to do another one too soon haha).
