Self-Portrait with Hand On Heart

Self-Portrait with Hand On Heart by Keelan McMorrow

Self-Portrait with Hand On Heart

This is a self-portrait of myself inspired by the art I always saw growing up as a Catholic. Just wondered how I might appear as a saint…...☺
The original work was completed with watercolor and gouache media on Arches cold-press cotton rag.

    I love the earthy Egon Sheileness (sp?) of your work there’s a sense your discovering more about yourself with each portrait. Your control of watercolour and gouache is outstanding.
