Reflections of the Inner Canvas

I painted a self-portrait in oil on canvas, catching the reflection of my inner self on the textured surface. The background's warm, earthy tones combine nicely with the rich, deep hues that make up my features. My eyes in the image reveal a depth of emotion, hinting at a mix of attract and introspection. The brushstrokes are deliberate but loose, reflecting the layers of experiences that have shaped me. 
Throughout the painting, I've included personal aspects such as clothes and dyed hair that reflect significant periods and experiences in my life. These elements enrich the portrait's meaning by describing the story of my growth and development.
