PORTRAITS OF "MOI"                          DES PORTRAITS DE "MOI "
 
       

To take oneself too seriously is to destroy all that is spontaneous and real , leaving nothing but a pompous shell.

Cette collection d'auto-caricatures le disent bien:   Il ne faut jamais se prendre trop au sérieux.

   
       
             
   

This collection of

self-caricatures says it all:

Taking oneself too seriously

is silly.

(1960s and 70's sketches)

   
             

A Portrait of Me

Gordon, a young student

sketched this likeness

of me many, many years

ago. I have always held

onto it. It is an extremely

good likeness of both my

physicality and my soul. (I

hope Gordon has

continued sketching. . . )

         
             

Another Portrait of Me

This is a very precious

portrait. It is a sketch of

me created in 1975

by a very special boy

of seven. I am sure

he went on to become

as wonderful an adult

as he was a boy.

Much love and all the

best to you Andrew.

 

       

 

             

Elly Kish,The extraordinary

painter of all things

and portraits, did this fine

charcoal drawing of me

in my "youth". (1972)

 

       
             

Poulin Self-Portrait

(2000)

This is one self portrait

I consider succesful.

         
             
   
 

Beard - 1976

This self-portrait belongs to my brother Gerry.

(Gerry has a wondrous sense of humour)

He thought it worth preserving. . . The theme

is the process of shaving off a beard. . .

(Serious art it ain't!)
