Faces and Figuration

This is on ongoing, ever evolving portrait and figuration series. What started as an interest of deep shadow, became a study of human interaction and deeper psychological themes. Stylistically, these are built upon an initial dark surface, leaving only the most important information and generally omitting that which is in shadow (ie. many apparent gothic themes).

The substance of these varies. Some are just studies, some are theatrical, others punch you in the face. Enjoy.
