Day 79

I've mentioned before that I'm a huge fan of Salvador Dali. He created many images of people who had some sort of compartment built into their body, from drawers to doors to passageways. At this point, I can't say if I borrowed the idea from him, or if I arrived at it myself and simply noticed the similarity later on. I do know, however, that this has been an interest of mine and a definite characteristic of my art for years.

It is probably worthy of mentioning that this self-portrait was completed while I was nearly 79% asleep last night! My goal is to do the next portrait earlier in the day to avoid the same predicament today...
