daily self portraits and (not so) random thoughts

some truth
thinking a lot about portraits
and self portraits
and what that all means to me

it's largely about a truth
when you take a portrait of someone else
it's your truth about them
what you see/feel
about something outside yourself


when you take a self portrait
it's about what you see in you
and the truth comes with how much of that
you are willing to share with the world


and then there's balance


(this image is a return to the abstracted reality series)

in actuality
it is the palm of my hand
but
we all know that it isn't
