It reminds me of a self portrait of Jacek Malczewski!

Actually, you are quite similar!

Really nice selfportrait ! Your pose is just perfect.
You work with mirror, or photo, or just your head ?

I'm thinking you are a Rembrandt fan was the black sweater and white shirt deliberate?? Respect goes out to anyone who can use oils as good as this. Lots of great stuff i like, the 'sketched' in background pic, shadow across the left-side of the body, in fact the lighting in general!

Thanks! Yes, I picked the clothing to try out the Dutch palette. Glad you like it.

No problem, i love it when artists on DA 'tip the hat' to some of those who have gone before but do something great in their own right

So that's why my traditional paintings always seem like they're lacking: I'm not using enough paint!

Your self-portrait came out absolutely delicious. I can't believe this is oils, it's so...crisp!
