Marian, a Self-Portrait

18 × 24 inches | Oil on canvas | Not for sale | Completed November 2025

For some time, Denis had been grumbling that his portrait was the only one and asking why I hadn’t painted one of myself.

My answer was simple – I didn’t like any of my photos!

:blush:

Anyway, I finally broke down and decided to give it a go. My girls will probably look at this and say, “Oh Mum,” because I’ve used my favourite pose – which apparently I use far too often.

I am also quite a bit older in my portrait than Denis is in his. Hahaha.
