Self-portrait (and selfies)

Many famous artists have painted self-portraits throughout time... If they had lived today, would they have considered selfies to be as worthy of such artistic prestige? What is the difference between a selfie and a self-portrait? I explored that idea recently by first taking many different selfies. I tried to be thoughtful about composition, perspective, lighting, and considered what I was trying to portray. I think most selfies generally are taken quickly and simply meant to let others know when/where you were at a certain time. Because of this, I think the main difference between selfies and self portraits is in the intention. A self-portrait takes a lot of time to make and because of that, more thought goes into each detail. There's nothing wrong with selfies, but I don't think most selfies are equivalent artistically to self-portraits. Regardless, my selfie exploration led to this painting... For this painting I limited myself to a zorn palette - meaning I only used 2 colors from the color wheel (yellow ochre and cadmium red), while also using black and white. I originally planned to paint the chess pieces, however after spending almost 15 hours on this painting, I was running out of time to submit this piece for my class... Then I had an idea... What if I titled the painting "Playin' Mindgames" and showed a player visualizing the game? And thus, a cool/new idea was created out of necessity and a creative/flexible mindset. There are already enough paintings of people playing chess, but I don't think there are many of people imagining playing chess ;)
