Description

This was supposed to be a self portrait, but it doesn't necessarily look like me. But it looks like a something, so it's all good!

I found this amazing little framed print of an Italian Renaissance painting at a tag sale my dad was having, so I took it. Yes, I jacked something from my family's own tag sale.
lol jk I asked him if I could have it and he said yes. :)

SO ANYWAY, I decided to take a swing at painting like The Masters! Which is really insulting to say because I'm nowhere near that level of talent, but hey, it doesn't hurt to try!

This is my first serious oil painting outside of school, so I'm really quite happy with it. I decided I should practice outside the confines of my school's walls, because my painting professor expects a lot out of me this semester and I really don't want to let down his lofty expectations. Hahah.

Painted on an oval piece of wood. It's relatively small...maybe like 4x7 or something.

Welllllllp! Enjoy!
