As Pablo Picasso once said, Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth . I for one felt that painting my self-portrait helped me realize a part of my true personality. Today I will be talking about the meaning behind my self-portrait and how it relates to my personality. Like most people who create self-portraits, I was inspired by several artists. In my speech today I will share who inspired my work, how the style of the artists I chose reflects my identity, and what the symbols and features in this piece say about my identity
Lilly Simonson was one of the artists who inspired me. She paints many underwater creatures that live near or at the bottom of the ocean. She also uses blacklight reactive paint to show the beauty of the ocean. Her work is also slightly cloudy and the creatures don’t have a strong black outline. Megan Majewski also inspired my work. The images and people she paints have an unsettling effect on them. She also uses a splattering effect in her paintings. This effect causes the people she’s painting to seem to fade into the background. Those were the artists that inspired my work.
Both of the styles of the artists I chose, reflect my identity. The style of Lilly Simonson reflects my identity because the glow-in-the-dark paint shows a different side to the ocean and in my piece, it shows a creepier side to my personality. The style of Megan Majewski reflects my identity because the splattering or fog effect shows that I am not completely sure of who I am as a person and who I will become as I get older. That is how the styles of both of the artists I chose reflect my identity.
There are many symbols and features in my portrait that say different things about my identity. The symbol in my piece of the octopus tentacle wrapping around my neck and choking me says that I can sometimes hold myself back from opportunities because Im worried about what might happen if I take that risk. The symbol in my piece of myself having abnormally large eyes represents my wanting to see the world from different perspectives or points of view. Those were a couple of the symbols and features that were in my self-portrait.
Now you know the meaning behind my self-portrait, and you have seen a part of my personality. Today you heard me talk about who inspired my work, how the style of the artists I chose reflects my identity, and what the symbols and features in this piece say about my identity. I hope that my speech makes you reflect on your own personality.
