Self-portrait

This self-portrait was composed in real time and is a set of reflections on glass contained within the framed confines of one of my color photographs from the 35 mm film era entitled, "Woman looking out of window." An old black and white photograph of my wife is seen, along with the tools that I use to express my art, camera on the right, and sunlight on the left represented here by a lit over-exposed lamp, and a glimpse of some recent art work, visible as a sliver of framed red and yellow to my left. Within the black frame, a metaphor for my personal universe, are my wife, my life, and nay not my strife, but my art. Integral components, enmeshed.
