Rembrandt.

"Self portraiture is the portrait of the Self through acts of Self-reflection." - Dan Zybala

The portrait in all expressional worth has always been the focal point of any painter in his career. The truth of creation lies in the feature of what pertains to be the overall personal mission of the painter looking to describe himself through the use of palette hues, values, and many other shadows of darkness or light. In the particular self-portrait Rembrandt tries hard to grasp the simplicity of his outside background giving a dark hue to the way his eyes remain in a face so hidden by remorse in the conception of age or possibly emotinal distraction. The tendency to construct a cheek bone so avidly rearranged by the years hard at work on his life study reveals the deep essence of what is behind the act of such a creation known to the history of the creator. Looking into the development of structure shows the posture so straight and confident allowing for a positive reinenforcement to who he really is as a visual artist. Different from others is the structure of his misdemeanor portraying the casualness of his self image, yet giving a brush off to the viewer who still respects him even though the ego in him is beyond the comprehension of a current viewer. The spectator now decades later realizes the cool and calm attitude of Rembrandt giving the feedback too often determined to accept his state of confidence leaving the modern poet hoping to push his art into a remembered state of positivity and continous study for generations to come.
