New Self Portraits

I've started doing daily self portraits again. In some way it helps me learn about myself and focus my energies. I just realized how often I wear blue.  For it not being one of my favorite colors, how do I end up with it so often?I'm trying to learn to appreciate myself no matter what my age or weight is.

Here are some of my recent self-portraits.

Sunhat and Glasses

As I age, it's harder and harder to keep taking self portraits. I become obsessed with every new spot on my face, every new wrinkle, jowls, sagging, and my lips getting thinner and thinner.  Still, I hope I have some redeeming qualities. I can find beauty looking at older faces. I just wish I could find it in my own.

New Year's Day Outfit

 

I wanted to dress up a bit for my new fashion blog. Even in January, it's t-shirt weather in my Anaheim, CA neighborhood. So I'm wearing a sleeveless t-shirt and the new scarf I just bought.

This one is not a self-portrait. My ex-husband took it in our front yard.
