Exclamation Get inspired. Over 330 self portraits made in a day! Art... CA style!


What if… by a funny chance you become your own inspiration? What if the most beautiful entity in the universe is… you? The one you think you are, the one you want to be, the one the mirror shows... the one.

The whole universe is reflecting in your eye – look back into it!


1 NOVEMBER 2006
INTERNATIONAL DAY OF SELF PORTRAIT



If you are an artist, of any kind, do your self portrait.
If you haven't done it yet, do your self portrait.
If you did more than 1000, do your self portrait.
If you want to take part in a massive internet art event, do your self portrait.
If you failed to express yourself through art, do your self portrait.
If your art is better than any of your self portraits, do your self portrait.
If you have reconsidered art after seeing Android's SPOD’s, do your self portrait.
If you want to make a step to a brand new ZEN EXPERIENCE, do your self portrait.
If you want to take part in a world record, do your self portrait.


Visit www.conceptart.org/forums and be amazed.
There is only one rule: Do your self portrait on November 1

Andrei Fantana

EDIT 2007: Here is what happened last year!!! Now.. get ready for 1st November 2007.
this is where you should post your self Portrait on Nov. 1st 2007 - http://www.conceptart.org/forums/sho...d.php?t=108950

If this was a bit inspiring.. COME TO THE WORKSHOP... and see WHAT INSPIRATION REALY IS!

Awright, boring style, but hey.
Worked outwards from the nose in a kind of spiral, as a new way to approach painting.
Concentrated on tone as I am absymally bad at it...

Wow people! There's some killer artwork in here...
Sve; yours is very nice, and I can definetely recognise you immediately.

Heres what I did this morning, I'm not happy at all with it, but ah well, will do some more later today.
I guess I shouldn't have gone crazy with the markers after I finished the pencils, and the right side of the face (viewers left) is kinda messed up ^^
