Selfportrait picturing myself in a couple of years, making the most of my daydream, putting everything I have on the table with a theatrical boredom that says I 'll be a hero even if I lose. Self-portrait as a hypochondriac #2, wearing my pj’s like a prison uniform, chained to my bed and my potentially fatal diseases ... Reclining half nude in a wheelbarrow in the back of my girlfriend’s garden, not doing the gardening I’m supposed to do, feeling detached from passing time ...
I have just met the woman Conrad calls the love of his life ... Self-portrait as a young Ellsworth Kelly ... Self-portrait as a human being, almost classically baroque in style ...
Self-portrait in which I am organizing my shoe collection ... Self-portrait as a tennis hero Self-portrait as Franz Kline
Another impossible self-portrait... Defeat is not the word for those two or three punches that portrayed me as ‘smashed’, ‘thrashed’ and ‘pity loser’ Another selfportrait
