Blue selfportrait

It was time for another selfportrait. This one is mixed media, oil on paper; it stems from the period in 1981. The Vet has loads of those. The lyrics typical for Tony's longing say: and see me. Like all of us he wanted to be seen and loved for whom he was. Note the realistic details of earrings and the dog in the background. The large pallet was a typical attribute. He often represented himself as a painter.
