Although initially inspired by Pablo Picasso, upon closer inspection, it was evident that his influence did not significantly shape the final illustration. While the colour scheme may have been reminiscent of Picasso's work, the overall shape diverged entirely from his style. I did not use other photos as inspiration for the face because this one had facial hair, which many of my photos do not have. The self-portrait was the likely reason why I painted this. I intended to create another portrait-based work, but I also had the self-made proverb "Who cares? Be content." in my head for several months at that point.
