Gouache on paper.
A woman with long brown hair, red-framed glasses, and a small gold hoop earring, shown in three-quarter view. She wears a gray collared shirt. The ground is gold with a textured circular form behind the head.
One of my earliest self-portraits, based on a 2018 photograph. The red glasses I wore before LASIK have since become a recurring element. For me they mark identity — a way of seeing and being seen.
