Self Portrait: The Other Side of the Mirror

Description

I forgot to upload this when I finally finished it. >.>

This is a painting of me last year's clown costume for the Haunted Hollow. When I started this, I was so horrendously frustrated with it because the painting itself is freakin' huge--30x40. That's about three feet by four feet, give or take a few inches. Bigger than anything I've ever done before, anyway.

Once I got about 60% finished with it, though, I really, really started to like it. People would walk into the art room and be all like, "That's freakin' scary!" and "I hate clowns, but this is really good!" It was especially fun to tell them that it was a self-portrait. XD The looks they gave me... I must look like a sweet little angel child or something, because they certainly weren't expecting me to be so scary.

Also... This freaky clown of mine is male. I am not. XD My costumes are usually boys... And fortunately, people can't generally tell what gender I am when I'm decked out in this particular outfit. I'm still practicing on disguising my voice... though it is entertaining when folks get confused. 8D I just wish I had a name for this clown character of mine.

I've just now realized how very 'off' the colors are. Darn printer. XD But! I am very much proud of this painting, anyway.

Amazing! I thought this was a photo when I first looked at it! It must have been very challenging to create such a large piece--but your coloring is so consistent and your lines are so crisp! Beautiful!
