I'm tied up at the moment (things like the Bartman student link list and moving Art & Perception) but I will be back later to add my 2 cents to the critique.karl zipserhttp://www.zipser.nlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27278245.post-1160653539092098172006-10-12T06:45:00.000-05:002006-10-12T06:45:00.000-05:00I was going to ask if this is a self-potrait?

I keep wondering if I am seeing your father here. I can't pin point why I think that, though--something about the gaze and the tightness of the mouth.<BR/><BR/>Both self-portraits are really lovely--the first invokes Lucien FReud for me and the second, I am not quite sure but something or someone familiar.<BR/><BR/>VivAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27278245.post-1158117454212624692006-09-12T22:17:00.000-05:002006-09-12T22:17:00.000-05:00yeah.. that's me!Gautam Raohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12092480153926816738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27278245.post-1158105695399536562006-09-12T19:01:00.000-05:002006-09-12T19:01:00.000-05:00a self portrait?minghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05671237019764985930noreply@blogger.com
