Self Portrait


Grimacing Man (Self-Portrait)
Léopold Boilly Reproduction


Silly Me
Self Portrait à la Léopold Boilly

This project was a lot of fun. I had to create a self portrait reproduction of a famous artist and then one of my own- inspired by that self portrait.

A little about why I chose Léopold Boilly:

"He meticulously recorded facial details and gestures, and his depictions of costumes and textiles are fascinating as a chronicle of fashion. Boilly's paintings and drawings, often tinged with humor, showcase the artist's witty interpretation of urban life." -www.getty.edu
