Arcimboldo-Style Self-Portrait
I LOVED this exercise. I included images from art and history to compose my self portrait. I call it my Art Queen Arcimboldo-Style Self-Portrait. I found a flower scrap that said "She most heartily enjoyed pursuing life" and thought it appropriate. Then I thought about the times in the past when I most thoroughly enjoyed life, and it always involved some application of creativity. Next I created an explosion of art and art supplies bursting forth from my head like ideas just popping out all over the page. I used magazine scraps of a quilt for the hair and some of the other accents. My favorite thing about this page is my crown. A crown for an Art Queen.
