    Exclamation 365 days , 365 portraits (big download)

    what a year. i can honestly say that this has been one of the most interesting years of my life, it has been one of the hardest and most demanding, and also one of the most rewarding, every emotion i am capable of is represented with in these pixels, I cant explain what it is like to seee them all together, Its like looking back at a year of your life in an instant. When i started this i had no idea what to expect out of it, I think one of my motives was to find myself or my "soul". life is ironic , i devote so much time and energy to this struggle of self reilization and sometimes i feel like i would trade it all if only i could go back to being the person i was before i ever posed the question. regardless its too late to turn back now, every anwser i find leads me to new questions. and these questions lead to new growth. i have learned so much from this and i am still so far away from all of my anwsers. So I must continue. I want to thank the CA comunity for all of your support and encouragment this year.
    the rabbit hole of my own narcissim is dark and deep, but you guys make the journey brighter, and I am still currious to see how far down it goes.

    What an accomplishment. So many emotions are attached to these portraits, some beautiful, some tortuous, some serene, some twisted, all worthwhile.
    Thanks for sharing them!

    Have you ever looked at Sussanna Coffey's work? I just found out about her yesterday when she gave a lecture at my school. I think she only paints self-portraits.

    Talking No words to describe it!

    Well, you finally did it! :clapping2

    I can only imagine the sense of pride you must feel stepping back and taking a look at that picture. 365 days of discovery and hard work. Well done Andrew...just plain well done! It's an added treat that you share these with us and I thank you for it!

    Now...when does the poster come out so I can be the first in line to buy it!!!!

    Andrew, you are such an inspiration to all of us. You are simply amazing. If this would be put on a poster I'd definately buy (as soon as I get some money, that is).

    thank you so much for the inspiration.
