Self Portrait

For this assignments we were asked to find a piece of art that speaks to our soul.  I looked at a lot of art from the 20's and 50's and stumbled upon a piece by Bernard Villemot. I liked the simple and bold colors, the girly-ness, the pose, and those big red lips! So after hours of sowing, cutting, picture taking, editing, re-editing, and blodding fingers later....here is a replication "Bally"..
