Self Portrait
I have never really painted faces or people before, but after painting Psalm 45 I decided it was something I definitely wanted to become better at, especially with colour and tone, so looked up some helpful hints online and decided to practice on myself.

So this is my first self portrait, done from a photo, with oils on stretched canvas on the 19th and 20th of March 2009.

The online picture doesn't do justice to just how AWESOME this picture is in real life! I literally thought I was looking at a photo - you're extremely talented Keryn!
This is AMAZING Kez- so life like. So bummed I won't be able to make your exhibition :( - Angie Taylor
Good but i was also unable to reach exhibition.
Hi Keryn, just stumbled upon your blog when I googled "PSALM 45" images - just want to say that your work is absolutely stunning! I see such a pure heart portrayed through your art. Amazing. The Lord is on such a journey with me regarding Psalm 45, and I was wondering if I could buy a copy of your painting (preferably on canvas) somehow. Hope to hear from you.
