Selfies are popular today, yet they are part of a centuries-old tradition in art -- the self-portrait. Photographer Rick Doble was one of the first artists to explore the new possibility of selfies and self-portraiture with a digital camera, including GIF animations. In this eBook he shows how his work developed and offers tips for creating unusual selfies. This interactive PowerPoint presentation offers a wide range of selfie photographs to inspire artists who want to go further than the standard smiling selfie. Also included are galleries of contemporary selfies plus self-portraits in history by men and women along with self-portraits by famous artists such as Durer, Rembrandt and van Gogh.
