About this work
‘Life Lines’ is a self portrait. I have been a portrait painter for a long time now and love painting people. However, understandably when commissioning a portrait, people want to look their best selves. I often have to play down any perceived flaws; wrinkles, scars, double chins etc. but I think that these things show a life lived, so when painting myself I wanted to paint everything I saw in my own face, raw and unvarnished. I also love to paint detail so wrinkles are perfect!
