22 Self Portraits of Great Artists

Have you ever thought of including yourself in any designs before, such as drawing your own face or placing yourself in any photo-manipulation works? Here are the self portraits of some artists around. It’s pretty interesting to see how they use their favorite techniques to illustrate themselves in the way they want it to be. Personally like a lot on the ones from FinalFantasyEva and Great OHARU.

Do drop a line here if you have done a self-portrait before or seen some other great works as well. I will love to compile them into a bigger list. Hope you will enjoy this one. Click on images to visit portfolio sites of the original artists.

    This inspired me to make my self portrait (not exactly.. it was more of a self caricature) which I used for my New Year Post.

    Lovely article!
