Selfie as Dog

 

8/16/26 Self-portrait from mirror

Roy texted us a self-portrait he had made that morning. He challenged Mary Jean and me to make self-portraits by the end of the day for Selfie Sunday (which I guess is a thing, as I’ve long seen the hashtag, but I’ve never participated).

The last time I made a self-portrait, I had treated myself like a dog. I decided to do the same again, but this time I used a brush pen. Unusual for a self-portrait, I like this one, even with the severe selfie scowl.

  1. This is great! I can’t believe you did it with a brush pen!

  2. It's more the concentrating sketcher look. Nicely done with the brush pen.

    1. Thanks! People always say I should smile in my selfies, but that's too much work. ;-)

  3. I feel, perhaps wrongly, that it is your choice of lost (and found) lines that makes this self portrait more appealing and less grim than others. It is so spare in what is revealed that my mind fills in the rest most pleasingly. Anne HwH
