Self Portrait – Dan Beck – digital painting 2007
I was asked to do my self portrait. An artist friend of mine was interested in seeing how I would deal with the face I think. Seeing all the color in my work made him wonder – since (I am guessing) most of his current work is about portraiture.
So there I am – with the obligatory somewhat troubled artistic look – not that I am happy all the time – but probably more than appears here.
But then again, I think this is accurate to how I view myself when I am alone – there is intensity and desire for something better – but there is also a slight smile.

Found this interesting how many images here as well as Van Gogh, Picasso, Monet, etc.
