selfportrait

Posted on August 7, 2007 Under Art

We know what you need: a website where you can post all of your fucked up shit artsy stuff, with total freedom and in total comfort. selfportrait allows users to post anything (yep, anything) they want for the sake of expression, and — not surprisingly — this has resulted in an incredibly incredible selection of user-generated art, film, music, fashion, computer arts, photography… and practically everything else in between. The nicest thing about selfportrait, I think, is the seemingly complete (or expertly hidden) absence of “that” attitude that normally surrounds art. Yes, there are tons of serious artists on the site, but due to selfportrait’s overall vibe, that classic art pretentiousness is neither embraced or coddled.

Artists can also sell their creations on selfportrait, and I’m pretty impressed with some of the things that are up for grabs (like this brilliant Photoshop masterpiece going for a gentle one mil; HA!). This could turn out to be a pretty amazing option for getting some fresh work in your collection (or selling your own work), so head on over for some new stuff, some well-known stuff, and some really, uh, interesting stuff.
