It’s not a secret society of blog commenters. Everyone (yes, even you) can add a picture to their comments. […]

Actually, as you can see, an avatar conveys an Identity that is not always best expressed as a Portrait. Well, a _real_ portrait, anyway…
An Internet Identity can be carefully crafted. Roger Ailes says, “You are the Message,” so you must determine exactly what your Message is.
Andy Warhol’s face was so disturbing it would have made a great Avatar. Mine is so disturbing, it would not…

Maria: Absolutely. And I love your photo. Great smile!
Barbara: Did you notice that you don’t have a Gravatar? You need to sign up! You’re on Blogger, which is in its own little world. You have a Blogger avatar. Those of us not on Blogger get frustrated that they don’t adapt to non-Google platforms. So, your avatar didn’t show up here.
Lisa: You’re welcome. Nice to see your face!

I couldn’t agree more. I read art blogs because I like the artists’ work, but
I find it very frustrating when they use a sock puppet, or cartoon as an avatar. I want to know what the person looks like. Maybe that’s because I’m a portrait artist, but you’ve explained it perfectly. If you’re using social media, it makes sense to be social!
As usual I love your thoughtful blog.
Take care,
Barbara
