May I ask for weird help, please?

I have a batch of issues about how I look, including that I don’t “look” like what people value as an artist.

Here are three selfies from this year; do I look like particularly like someone who might make stuff? If so any particular sort? Do I look fairly neutral in terms of not being able to guess personality or interests?

@Leucrotta Hey, in #2 you look 💯​like an artist! The bandana, the headtilt, the backpack, the glasses. It's a good look for you. And the fact that you carry around filled sketchbooks with things you actually drew is more of what makes you an artist than any image presentation. But I'm not the best husky to ask, cause I know you already. And your art rocks., BTW.

@kelseyhusky thanks! Peggy points out that it’s where the taste in clothes suggests more of a personality. So far every answer I’ve gotten challenges my fear I don’t look the part somehow!

@Leucrotta I think that's a good thing! Cause if you hear it enough times, you might start believing it!
