Doing a self portrait is not something I like or prefer to do! I don't feel skilled enough to work with faces at all but, I want to learn!
Today I used Acrylic paint because I do most of my work with that! In the coming weeks I will make more of them with other mediums like water color and chalk!
I refuse to work with shadows and skin colors at this point because... well it's just not my style! Maybe in time when I learn to to faces, eyes and hair better I might feel different! In this case I wanted to create something in multi colors to give it more spicy effect!
Gosh, to be honest with you all.... I do NOT like the end result. Maybe it's the paint I picked, maybe the colors or maybe even the little circles I felt like adding in the end for some unknown reason! It happens and I am sure that it will happen again! I would like it better when I can say, "Oh look what I made, I love it!" BUT not this time. It's not that I really hate it ... Maybe it's because it's a self portrait? I dunno... I like the picture I used... Hmmmm Interesting!
Maybe I will like it better when I use a different medium next time!

I'm totally agree with you. PopArt is real and "One of its aims is to use images of popular (as opposed to elitist) culture in art, emphasizing the banal or kitschy elements of any culture, most often through the use of irony." Says Wikipedia :)

@poeticsnake I think a very good paint. Maybe, you expect more from yourself. That is a not traditional paint, but a good paint. Continue doing until you get satisfied about that, because you are the principal subject to agree with yourself.

For you to post something that you might not even like. Tells so much more about what art is all about. I LOVE THAT.. this whole post itself was a little eye opener to me.
In a way I dont think the word wrong could apply to art. You might not like it but there is always people out there that will because of perspective. Thank you for this post! Seriously did more than you think!
Also I got snekked by you on my intro post!! thank you so much for that. You are awesome. I just made my second post and shared some photography on some fisherman In Sri Lanka. Feel free to take a look! Upvoted. Cuz you taught me a lesson to share something that I could create even though I personally might not like it. I hold back a lot, so thanks.

Iconic and cool were my first thoughts. I imagined an aquatic figure gazing upward. The shapes and lines are elegant. I like the simple way you presented her breasts. Ok ima dude :). But realy the simple lines are very well executed and evocative. Well done darlin.
