two portraits.

..vs. Obsession:



My sister (age 14):


Two pieces about obsession and insecurity, about facades both transparent and opaque.

Painting portraits is so infinitely gratifying to me. There's so much psychology to be explored and so many stories to be told, and all can of that can be said with just the image of a face.
