I need a new self portrait, and I am very afraid to ask this but any ideas? I’m rather stuck.
I have always been insanely jealous of how Stanley Kubrick did his self portraits. They are at once wonderfully completely self-absorbed, playfully mocking, happily understated and totally unapologetic.
I wish I had this ability, to look at myself hidden behind the camera and take the moments of myself without reserve.

We are still thinking.
