So here's yet another self-portrait, I seem to be doing a lot of these this semester. This one was done shortly after the one with the really abstract backgrounf of the same size. I hope to eventually take one of my many self-portraits and produce a glass piece from it. Here's hoping.

In completely unrelated news I read an article today about a sculpture going on display in New York of Brittney Spears giving birth. The artist who made it is named Daniel Edwards, and while I wasn't able to find much background on him I did learn that he made a 'death mask' sculpture of the medically decapitated head of Ted Williams. Why was it medically decapitated? For cryogenic freezing, of course. I found the site for the company, a non-profit group called Alcor, and discovered that it is located in Arizona. My parents are going to Arizona in a couple of weeks and I'm trying to convince them to visit.
We'll see how that one plays out.
