Self Portrait XXXII

SELF PORTRAIT XXXII- Here is just me playing with photoshop, trying to come up with something unique or at least stylistic. It's ok, just needs a bit more cleaning up I suppose. Hey, it's an abstract.

Self Portrait XXXI

Self Portrait- They same as before except I am playing more with masks and textures. I like the shadows that were created in this one.

Self Portrait XXX

Self Portrait XXX- Just me playing with photoshop, getting back in the grove, nothin too impressive.

Self Portrait XXII

Self Portrait XXII- Just a boring self portrait done on a abstracted/photoshoped background. I like the texture and the impressionistic feel. But it could use something else. what? I do not know.

Self Portrait XXI

Self Portrait XXI- Ok so I am not Xeena. Still sort of like it, interesting?

Self Portrait XX

Self Portrait XX- And a more traditional photo for all of you not into the strange and goofy. The photoshope filters worked well on this one.

Self Portrait XIX

Self Portrait XIX- Please direct me to the ashram(sp). Ok so this is a might bit goofy. Relax people, just me playing with the camera.

Self Portrait XVIII

Self Portrait XVIII- Another version. Lighting is a little better.

Self Portrait XVII

Self Portrait XVII- Ok, this is a little streched out but you get it.

Self Portrait XVI

Self Portrait XVI- The lighting is odd, even if my eyes are little strange looking, darn cocked eyebrow.

Self Portrait XV

Self Portrait XV- Yup to many black and white movies.

Self Portrait XIV

SELF PORTRAIT XIV- Ok I've seen to may black and white films, however as vintage as this is I wish I had better lighting, to dark and and light in this pic. Costume worked well even though they will shortly become curtains.

Self Portrait XIII

SELF PORTRAIT XIII- Ok I was going for an abstract surreal sort of feel, I rather like this, even though I do wish I had some other type of self portraits to put in this. It is little to dramatic, and lacks some sophiscation, esp. with my face being so elongated but it does have mood to it.

Self Portrait XII

SELF Portrait XII- Ok this it so to romanatic for my taste, but I was just playing around with photoshop. Hey, if I ever but out a "World's Cheesest Love Songs" album, I'll have a cover? Or not, anyway, it is what it is, 'asi, asi'.

Self Portrait IX

Self Portrait IX- I really don't like this as I should have turned my head more but this is just me working on my photoshop skills. I like the lighting, just need to work more on compostion.

Abstract Self Portrait- Just some abstract work, hoping to make some paintings based on this type of photoshopped colors and such.

Self Portrait VIII

VIII

Bad lighting but it works.

Self Portrait VI

VI

There is no numerical sense to these, just be aware I am having to repost and repost all the time. It seems ridculous. Perhaps I'll strat a new blog on an another site. The lighting is a little bad, but it works some. Even though I hate my eyebrows, but that is just vanity speaking.

Self Portrait V

V

Another one, since the creepie images of me have been deleted. Go figure, still sort of creepie, just not the creepest.

Self Portrait II

II

I really don't get why I keep having to go back an repost, this seems rather ridiculous all the time I do mroe editing on here then I do actual work with photos. Anyway here just a simple photo of me, looking a little tired but nothing new with that.

self Portrait I

I

Another of the same with the same hat. I like to call this one "Women of mystery or just the hat?" I am a little odd, what can I say.

Self Portrait VII

I entitle this one "Among the Fire Leaves", early this fall I scanned a handful of leaves from what is commonly known as fire bush. I used this scan in several other images but mainly for texture. However in other images the leaves were lost due to the fact I was required to have so many images in composition. Dorky, to ruin what can be simple and straight forward to add good texture and pattern to a simple portrait.

Self Portrait IV

This is sort of creepy but I've always had that witchey/gypsy look. Darn stereotypes. I hope though to work this one into a painting, abstract of course.

Self Portrait III

Same hat and in straight forward black and white. I do prefer the profile on this one though.

Self Portrait

A black and white image of me done in several layers with photoshop. I do believe I like opacity a little to much.
