Angry Me
Description: Self portrait, lost in angry thoughts
Story: I’m in search lately for new ways to make expressive portraits. Portraits that go beyond resemblance and also express and convey a strong emotion to the viewer. Apart from its color palette and style the sheer physical size is an important quality of such a portrait: large images tend to have far more impact. To circumvent the limitations that digital pixel based artworks have, I’ve created this portrait as a (infinitely) scalable vector graphic. This means it can be scaled without losing its razor sharp definition.
The edition on sale here has a size of 15000 x 20000 pixels, which is ample to print in high quality - 300 dpi - on 50”x 75”(125 x 225 cm). The file size: 32 MB in JPEG-format.
This portrait was created first as a painting in acryl on canvas, then digitized and converted into vector graphics. The vector graphics have been intensively processed to achieve the final result.
