The initial concept of the self-portraits project called i-2-eye originated several years ago during a particularly vigorous and challenging period of my life and career. I wanted to capture a snapshot of myself, through my own eyes. During this time, for five minutes each morning and evening, I looked into a mirror and then sketched a portrait of what I had seen. What started out as a routine exercise to capture my appearance, moods, and emotions gradually developed into being a part of my life. At times I could hardly recognize the image looking back at me.

We are on a perpetual journey of learning more about ourselves and there are always many facets yet to be discovered. I hope that as you look at these portraits, you will see i 2 eye and may even perceive me in ways that are different to the way I see myself. Today I have more than 7,000 of them.  Some of the mediums I have used are lead pencils, colored pencils, oil and water-based pastels, crayons, markers, ink, watercolour, oils, acrylic, tape and paper.
