Self Portrait a'la Andy Warhol

We had an assignment in my illustration class to do a self portrait.  I loathe pictures of myself and don't really like taking pictures with people in them (does that say something about me?).

My idea was to take a picture of myself and turn it into a stencil or stamp and then put that image on different things I have an interest in.  So this is the result.....

In Photoshop, I cut out my face and put it on a transparent background and then used a 'stamp' filter.  Then I printed off the picture on different papers.  Then I glued them to a 9 x 16 sheet of drawing paper.

From top left to right:

1.  knitting/crocheting

2.  reading/books/writing

3.  drawing/painting/photography

4.  music/entertainment

5.  cooking/food

6.  fine arts/history

7.  gardening/plants

8.  fabric/textiles/sewing (was actually printed on fabric)

9.  coffee/tea!

10. puzzles/games

11. travel

12. nature/outdoors

I don't think anyone has to worry about their Andy Warhol art going down in price anytime soon. But now I have a dozen images of myself, starring at me.
