The Portraits and Self-Portraits Series
Judith Weinshall Liberman
ABOUT THE BOOK
In this book, author-artist Judith Weinshall Liberman presents over twenty of the self portraits she created during her long career in visual art. The self portraits in SELF PORTRAITS, painted over the thirty year period between the 1960s and the 1990s, reveal a great deal not only about Ms. Liberman's looks and personality but also about her devotion to her craft. The text accompanying the images in SELF PORTRAITS throws light on the variety of mediums used by the artist in creating her artworks.
More on SELF PORTRAITS or TO PURCHASE
The SELF PORTRAITS were created over a period of three decades - from the 1960s to the 1990s. Creating self portraits provided me the opportunity to explore art as well as myself. My exploration of art through the SELF PORTRAITS can be easily seen from the variety of media used in these works - oil, printed fabric, marble dust, acrylic, printpainting, collage and mixed media. My exploration of myself is evident in the images themselves. Some of my favorite works in the history of art were the self portraits created by Rembrandt and by Van Gogh. Their example inspired me to try to express my evolving thoughts and feelings about myself through the years.
