Back pain + sore feet = Self-portrait

I started working on a self portrait yesterday. I've never tried to paint one before. I'm happy with how it's coming along, but it's an interesting experience adding the challenges of posing to the challenges of painting. I wasn't really able to get my easel in a position where I could paint myself without having to move my head back and forth constantly, so every ten seconds I have to figure out exactly what position my head should be in. I'm quite a drifter, it seems! Also, I have to concentrate on not making ridiculous painter faces. If I had any dignity, I would never paint in public, with the looks my face settle into. Yikes.

I transfered my studio to the bathroom, as you can see in these pictures. Hopefully I will be done by the end of the day, so my brother can use the shower again.
