painted in Anne Iott's painting class at Tidewater Community College, Virginia Beach, VA, ca. 1978. Inspired by Gustav Klimt, an artist i admired earlier in my career, i believe i was standing in front of a mirror and sketching myself, although i exaggerated my form quite a bit for a more dramatic effect. Now in later years i have in fact "filled out" in the hips etc., so this might have been a prophetic portrait? i left my face off completely in keeping with my wish to keep it more anonymous, so that i could plausibly deny that it was self portrait.
