Why does mention of portraiture make me snort with derision? Because there are more images of individuals around now than in any
other point in history, yet portraiture has nothing to do with Contemporary Art. It’s a longstanding belief that self-portraiture brings us into
dialogue with my soul. There is an Essential Element of ‘Self-Control’ in my Portrait Art. I control what details are included in the final
works and what details are excluded. For a moment, I seize control of Time and Space. I control the Decisive Moment that is captured and
the setting in which I am contained. I become a Director in the Clip in which they are the Lead Actor. Therefore, My Portrait can become a
Major Exercise in Independent Production like a Photograph.
