Self-Portrait Questions

A self-portrait is a representation of a person. It can be abstract or realistic, however, it expresses who they are. A self-portrait can be made in any medium.

I feel that there are many distinct things that make me who I am. I am tall and have long brown hair and blue eyes. I am interested in photography, painting and graphic design. I love to travel to new places and I enjoy teaching young children art.

I want people to see me as someone who is kind, passionate about art, caring, and ambitious.

I feel I can express my different sides at different places in my life. If I am in school I tend to be very diligent and eager to learn, where as if I am hanging out with my friends I tend to be more open and free. If I am working I am become immersed in my projects and need to be quite to concentrate.

You can reinvent yourself after overcoming something huge in your life or having to change due to something that happened in your life. Many times it can be good to reinvent yourself. You may decide that who you use to be isn’t who you want to be anymore. You have the ability to change yourself.

I think it is easy to see how you are changing when you look back to the previous year. It may be hard to see change from day to day, however, by looking at it more long term you are able to clearly pick out the changes. You may change due to a new job, new partner or by trying something different.

I want to become a great art teacher in the future. I want students to be able to understand and create art. I also want to someday have a family of my own and be able to teach my children different things. I want to become someone who is happy at their job and who enjoys going to work.

  1. I like your comment about reinventing your self. I agree that over coming obstacles is a great way to take advantage of a negative thing and make it possible. I agree that we have the ability to change. I also found the self-portraits you choose very unique, successful ways of exploring portraiture.
