Background information by selfportraits.

Over the years I made some selfportraits, but in 2005 and 2006 I made a serie of twelf selfportraits in a row. They are very realistic and some of them surrealistic.
Unless the emotion of expression the paintings are very clean and clear painted.
It's a result of a clear view of the artist of some emotions he had/has and painted as objective as possible without expressing himself in a wild touch.
