Gallery Three

It was suggested to me that I should really do a new self portrait to mark my eightieth year. I’d just accidentally dropped my old glasses from my top pocket without noticing. Then, wouldn’t you know, I’d driven over them in my car! This was the first time I got to wear the new ones. I took a photo of myself in the mirror to work from then took another one of my right hand holding the brush (which I stuck onto the original photo). I wanted to get a real look of concentration in the painting and I think it works.
