Egon's Self Portraits




Ben said I should turn on the anti-shake function on the camera, so after playing about in the menus I found it. I hope these are ok.
Egon Shiele was brought up in Austria at the end of the ninteenth century, he was an ambitious, arrogant and awkward person who caused problems for everyone around him. Tim said he was an expressionist painter who's work was mostly allegorical.
I really like his style of drawing but find his subject matter difficult to look at. Not these though, these are his self-portraits.
