Artist statement, 2018I painted this portrait of myself in my painting hat. My new haircut made two large curls of hair go either side of the hat. I painted myself as a renaissance master in portraiture as a whim. I was painting very large works at the time that seemed very overwhelming to do because I’m not very tall.
