My worn baseball cap from our trip to Montauk. My beard, mostly gray now. My clavicle. My gaze, contemplating my reflection. My arm raised, doing my best to paint it. My studio and the palm tree that lives there. Our shades from Pearl River. The sky, sitting over Dumbo. How present I feel. My birthday is around the corner. This self portrait celebrates it.
