Early Oily: 2009.10.22, originally uploaded by Julia Kay.

Juxtaposer App on iThing, collaging three portraits from 1989.
I believe all three were done from life/mirror.

The two early oil paintings were done the same week in March - and the stabilo watercolor pencil/washes drawing was done later that year in December, after I had moved into a different apt and studio.

Amusingly, one of the oils was done on 3/15, a pre-anniversary of the beginning of my Daily Portrait Project.

I guess I had a consistent view of myself that year, because the match on the mouth blows me away - that's an exact split down the middle between one of the oil paintings and the watercolor pencil drawing from 9 months later.
