I'm sure you've noticed how, when people look in a mirror, they compose their features into a more pleasing aspect. This is their view of themselves.

That's why I don't do many portraits and I don't do many self portraits for the same reason. lol.

Some of these works go back twenty years. I bet those subjects don't look this way now, so may be the argument is academic after all.
