Hello there! Well, a few days ago...I was fixing my things in my new studio and I found this small photo of mine!

So...That's how I started doing the series of my big-format ,oil-pastel "liquid" self portraits (back in 2005!!!) :-)

"Self portrait" , oil pastel on canvas, 160cm X 120cm, 2005

    Are you a self-taught artist and have undergone schooling? I must say, I love your artstyle. I love this type of art wherein you use almost all the colors in the color wheel and still the result would be fantastic. I also like the idea of lines as I usually include lines in my artworks a lot.
