This is from a series of watercolors I've been working on for the past few weeks. I've avoided doing portraits for a long time, but lately I have found it really cathartic to paint people who I love and miss.
This is an old one, made in 2009, circles traced around cans of cafe bustelo. It's another kind of portrait, of myself and the people who meant the most to me at the time. I made it on a whim and it has become one of my personal favorites, folded many times (as you can maybe see) and carted around to every apartment I've lived in since.
