Face I

Originally this series was going to be the "Portrait" series, but quickly I decided against that moniker. "Face" is more suiting because these are not pictures of any person in particular, but they do all contain the component parts that make up a face. That happens to be one of two restrictions I set for myself: each picture contains two eyes, a nose and a mouth, and each picture is abstract, not representational.

My intent is to show the viewer, and myself, that even within limits an artist has limitless potential. Hopefully looking through the "Face" series stimulates your imagination while giving you are passenger seat view of my artistic journey.

"Face I" was particularly fun because I decided to use as many media as possible. I hope you enjoy it too.
