autoportraits psycologiques

Etranger = Foreigner

Etrange = strange. One letter fell off, but I realised it gave an altered meaning to the picture, so I just took another photo.

My first abstract. We were supposed to use different methods of expression and styles, so I thought why not. 

I don't want to say what I meant by each of them...although some are fairly obvious. This was our first homework assignment of the year and the point was to represent different facets of our personality through six to ten images, and then show how each one connects to the other (hense my floor circle). 

A collection of my best art to date...also my Parsons Portfollio
