Some self-portraits From 2009 - 2015.

Some self-portraits From 2009 - 2015. In 2009 I was in Mäntyharju. I had just graduated Master of Arts in Painting from Kuva/Helsinki. I had painted almost only color-field paintings for the last 5 or 6 years. I started to have doubts whether I can still paint realism. That's why I did these. I have to prove myself time to time I could if I would wan't to or need to.
