SELF PORTRAIT 2002Bert’s first self portrait
Bert thought he would have a crack at painting a self-portrait. One of the artists that he admires greatly was Rembrandt and he did a lot of self-portraits. It turned out to be quite difficult. Having a low resolution image to start with didn’t help and then there was his inexperience.
