Mandi's Self Portrait
I had a lot of fun with this project. I actually started with a Chuck Close picture... that took me all of a few minutes to finish. It was fun but way too easy. I needed more of a challenge. So I wanted to see how many different artist I could emulate in the time period we had. I did end up going over a day or so (partially cause I forgot my flashdrive with my almost finished project at home) but I liked what I came out with. There is references to Close, Warhol, Lichtenstein and meshed it all together with a David Salle type collage. I am please with the end product. It has the actual pictures of me, but also has many references to my life. Toys of my kids, Pooh with a tattoo, a wolf which I drew shortly after finishing my Native American spirit quest. All in all- it's me!
