Being one of my last few pieces, I found myself quite please with the outcome of this piece. For those of you who don't know, Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder categorized into the B cluster disorders. This cluster is comprised of personality disorders known for erratic, exaggerated, or otherwise over the top behavior. Those with narcissistic personality disorder are known for their extreme sense of self-worth. Many have egos the size of Texas and are generally considered shallow people. These people can also fly off the handle should someone threaten their self-image, but some are better at control than others. For this piece I wanted to capture that shallow and surface only beauty that most narcissists have. This piece shows that facade cracking away, almost like porcelain chip off a doll. Thus, exposing the inner, possessive beast that wears that face of an angel. Messing with a narcissists self-image can be cause quite unpredictable changes in mood. In this case, this piece includes self-harm and slight madness. Overall, I think this piece was one of my favorite "illness" works. I really think I have progress into a more gritty look, but not quite yet. The blood and dripping black I think turned out quite well. In summary, I good progression and lovely symbolic piece.
