Four Seasons

Autumn. 2014 Oil on linen, 28 x 22 in

     Nature and its four seasons has been inspiring artists and musicians for centuries.  An idea to create my version of “Four Seasons” was born in 2013.

    In this series I wanted to covey the spirit of the seasons through a human form and integrate elements of a still life and a portrait.

Although I used myself as a model, it was not my goal to create 4 self-portraits and capture likeness. I was trying to find various looks and expressions and appear as a new character in front of my viewers. 
Use of different style wigs, that were turned into complex still life, and various lighting conditions helped me in this approach.
 The series “Four Seasons” was completed in 2015.
