Where's my beret?

I haven't touched my paints since I got sick with kidney cancer in 1985 and closed my sign shop. 

A few weeks ago I was asked to put a self portrait in an upcoming art show and I agreed.

I bought some oil paints and canvases yesterday, meant to gesso them but it will have to wait until tomorrow. 

Will be interesting to see if I still have the knack or not.

If I come up with anything interesting I will share it with you. 

I miss painting, this should be fun. Will probably take a while to get in tune with the brush again.

A friend is going to take some head shots tomorrow that I can work from.
