4th Art-Trail Contest: Self-Portrait ~ "Self Abstraction"

In this artwork titled “Self Abstraction” I incorporated symbols that were presented to me in a most vivid dream. Looking closely at each individual shape within the artwork you will find a world of detail, but stepping back and observing it as a whole, you will be able to identify the profile view of a face looking towards the right which is much like my own. This was discovered after the completion of the artwork, for it was not my intention to do a self portrait but mysteriously it came to be and thus the title “Self Abstraction.”
