Self Portrait (2002)

It’s been a while, I don’t know where to start so here goes. I remember painting this for my final and my teacher asked me what do you see and I said peace, my teacher was like why? Where do you see that? He said it was all dark, gloomy and depressing. I told him when I play my guitar, I’m at peace plus I told him it was my painting and that is what I see and feel. I was very surprised when he said that to me, I figure for being a painter himself you can interpret the artwork how ever you want. He was great painter but I don’t think he knew how to teach, there was a lot of things we disagreed on and it discouraged me from continuing on to the next painting class or paint for really long time.
