“Dysmorphia” Watercolor on gessoed masonite 17x44 This painting is for The Hollow Project which is a show about body issues and self esteem.  Read about it here.   About the painting: By all accounts, I have a wonderful life.  I have married, loving, and supportive parents. I have friends, graduated college, have a job and a comfortable home.  Yet I am faced with a view of myself that is far removed from reality. I hope this painting can be like the Picture of Dorian Gray that can absorb these exaggerated problems I see in myself.
