Pressing on, between elation and despair, as these things go. Realised that the sense of familiarity was nothing to do with the fact theses are self portraits, but that they are like the work of AOS, Austin Spare, and artist that interested me a decade ago - until I read his written works and looked at more illustrations. I dunno; of course all artists have to be self-indulgent or nothing would get made but there's a fine line. Not too fine, in his case. Maybe not in mine either.
