I am so impressed. In my younger days I would do drawing self-portraits, but painting is a whole other beast. I love how you just keep going, painting over, moving shapes and changing colors. I love your process and I am learning quite a bit watching your videos.
Your acrylic work is super inspiring, Hannah. You push through moments where I'm clasping at my hair yelling, "too much! too much! stop!" but you keep going and keep going and it gets to a point where I say to myself, "dang! wow! she really pulled that together!!!" Your vibrating hues gives a really lively energy that is so pleasing to watch. We need more of these!!
I just did 3 self portraits. I did them sitting front of the mirror. Omg it was hard. Each time my wife said “nice painting but it doesn’t look, like you”. My goal is to do them until someone tells it looks like me.
I really love how u kept going at it and how there’s almost dozens of portraits on top of each other. I find that I get attached to the image pretty quickly so I don’t end up redoing it (on top of it) so it kinda ends up never getting there or smn
This is so interesting, insightful, exciting & kinda intimidating. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with self portraits. I’ve never done one. But I intend to at some point.😊
This was helpful to me as I struggle with starting a portrait of my own Under the theory that a fresh pair of eyes can see the forest for the trees - it looks to me like the upper lip is what is off a bit
I will never do self portraiture, far too little wiggle room ,can’t handle the lack of freedom , I simply don’t need the restrictions. I am going to paint an abstract of you from the glimpses I get of you in these videos, that will be interesting.

“it’s an awesome feeling to see yourself in something other than yourself” !!!
I truly love how you articulate the inner working of how you paint!

Two beauties - both you and your painting. Well done.

Looove!
I like how you see and painted yourself

Thank you I appreciate that!
That also kinda how it works with other people: once I stop projecting ur inner workings, I can connect more deeply and truly see urself in them😊

Self portrait is important but i think it's hard at the same time:)))
