Self-Portrait is a painting by Joan Mir\u00f3: a face drawn in thick black loops, with two eyes and a yellow patch on an olive-green ground. We paint our hand-painted study of Self-Portrait to order on canvas, in oil or acrylic, in 8 sizes from 40 \u00d7 50 cm to 130 \u00d7 160 cm or in a custom size. Before Self-Portrait is dispatched, we send you a photo of the finished painting.<\/p>\n
Self-Portrait shows large black circles forming the head and eyes, one eye ringed in red, short black hair above and thick black lines below winding around a yellow patch; the background is an olive-green surface covered in tiny drawings. Mir\u00f3 translated his own face into playful signs, which is why Self-Portrait feels cheerful, childlike and mysterious at once.<\/p>\n
Our painters paint the study of Self-Portrait by hand, with brushstrokes of different thickness, separately for every order. We paint in oil or acrylic, depending on the subject and the size, so the surface of Self-Portrait has a real paint texture that a print does not have. When Self-Portrait is finished, we photograph it and send you the photo for approval.<\/p>\n
For the wall above a sofa or a sideboard choose Self-Portrait in 90 \u00d7 110 cm, and for a bedroom, hallway or work corner 40 \u00d7 50 cm. Self-Portrait is available in 40 \u00d7 50 cm, 50 \u00d7 61 cm, 60 \u00d7 70 cm, 70 \u00d7 85 cm, 80 \u00d7 100 cm, 90 \u00d7 110 cm, 110 \u00d7 130 cm and 130 \u00d7 160 cm. A simple rule for Self-Portrait: it should be about two thirds as wide as the furniture below it, with its centre about 150 cm from the floor.<\/p>\n
We ship Self-Portrait rolled in a sturdy tube, stretched on 2.5 cm deep wooden stretcher bars, or framed \u2013 you choose when you order. Stretching and framing of Self-Portrait are done in our workshop in Slovenia. When a size of Self-Portrait is in stock, it reaches you within 6 working days; a study of Self-Portrait painted to order reaches you in 15 to 45 days.<\/p>\n
