:D I seen this on your personal site before :faint: :wow: It is the most striking portrait I have ever seen on this site now :lol: The title fit perfectly with this piece .There is no doubt i will come to revisit this again and again to see how self portraits can become as good as you want them to be :D The brush strokes and limited palate work beautifully . Such a psychological painting even the mirror on its own could be a compelling piece :D I onder what you can see in this painting because i can see a darn lot ... :D :thumbsup:

I like the mirror from Jan Van Eck "The Arnolfini Marriage". Interesting touch. Very well done. :+fav:

Check out my gallery? [link]

There is no way to measure an artist, or their work, because nothing matters, but their vision. Their acceptance by the rest of the world is merely external.

Love the reflection in the mirror. Detail on the union jack is nice.

I REALLY love the composition!! Great placement! The mirror makes a nice vignette around the guy's head.[link]
