The self portrait was created in an important period of my life - the time of moving to St. Petersburg to continue my studies at the Academy of Fine Arts. Time of doubt and experiences. The work was difficult, especially the dark figure against the window..My teacher said: "There is not enough energy here. Add a little red."It was the solution to all the work. Red color sounded on the canvas, completely replacing the background and became a reflection of the determination that I lacked in life.
