Here is my "cheat" self-portrait (artistic license). Here are the cheats: Back of my head shown, not front; my legs are not as short as they look here I work sitting down, not standing up; I work only on aceo's NOT large canvases; I can't hang my canes on aceo's; my cat can't sit on top of the easel; there is no black cat who stands on 2 feet, nor any mice in my studio
But, some of this is truth, I do like to work in bare feet, hair is grey-white and about that length and I work with pens mostly.
Ink, acrylics, alcohol inks, and watercolor pencils.
