Show Us Your Self-portraits!

Good morning, Edward!

...I'd like to, Edward, but only have a selfie of my better half.....may I ? Why not! We're 'as one', after 53 years,lol.......

Here are the only two self portraits I have uploaded here. One is my avatar. I've been thinking it may be time to make a new one though.

I had to dig deep for this one!

most of these actually sold. i also have the avatars, but they aren't in a art form yet.

Thanks for the participants so far.

Hmmm I think we have a lot of shy people around here. Live a little, have some fun! What better way to engage your public then with a self-portrait that puts yourself out there.

Okay, Edward.... live a little...a bit of me....in the corner...




Cheers, Barbara

I have quite a few and do not want to clog your thread. Here are some of my paintings as famous people:

I'm a big fan of experimenting on myself before doing things with other people.
Not in the weird way that sounded though. 😁😊😆

Then:



Now

I'm a selfie junkie.

How do I copy the picture?

@Diana - just copy the link next to the photo. It starts with < a href

.

Ok, here it goes.

Here you go Diane:

I am confused... how do I do it exactly?

Diane go to your image, and on the right under description is says EMBED copy and paste that link here
to copy: hightlight and CTRL

Diana, under description you'll see a link... Ctrl c to copy (highlight) come here Ctrl v to paste.

Cheers, Barbara

This is what i show someone when i want to be left alone but it really isn't me

Drew,
I do the same with this one one of my raptors, complete with blood dripping of the talons!

WAY BEFORE PHOTOSHOP


Actual photo..NO cut and paste

Roger, did you just get out of an Alaska swimming pool?

Self Portrait:

In my practice I use a variety of mediums to make art and I wanted to create an image that could illustrate this. While experimenting with ways to combine drawing and photography, I created this self portrait which seamlessly unites the two. This artwork is an example of the endless possibilities that art has to offer in our modern digital age.

So where do you get golden underwear, Roger?

Here's my selfie.

Zombie Hummingbird Attack Caught on Camera!

My Jaques Cousteau look, taken about three years ago with a HTC cell phone 6 pixels. Not sure if it was hand held or I put the cell camera on timer.... And then there is the Green Irishman

Here's one from back in '72

One of my first tries with low-key.

I like it. Makes a better avatar IMO. (maybe a white card on the right for a little fill light)

Thanks, I need to work on the fill light and maybe try some light from above.
Ok, why not to use a new avatar:) I have made some dodging and burning ajustment for better cotrast.

I like it better as your avatar because you are looking right at the viewer.

Something Strange Here...

Even though I mostly paint I never desired to paint myself. I have fiddled around with photo and digital effects using my own visage!

This is a 3D stereo crossview. The method for viewing is to have the entire side-by-side image within view and gently converge (cross), your eyes and focus on the middle image that appears while ignoring the outside. This is similar to those "magic eye" type of images you may have seen before. Not everyone is successful with this viewing method, but if you are, it becomes easier each time and soon will become 2nd nature...



If you have not yet been successful 'freeviewing' this 3D stereo format, here is a video tutorial that may help...

Successfully viewing this X-View, allowing you to perceive depth in the image will absolutely blow your mind. Good luck!
