Inspired by the annual Portrait of the year at the National Portrait Gallery, I decided to paint a self portrait. It began with a portrait of my younger self, but as it hung in my room, I added more and more to it from words, to gold paint.

What began as a simple portrait, that for year sI had scrapped half finished, took a new life in my new home, as I slowly added to to it, adding details, words and textures to articulate my own creative journey.
