Gee whiz.. to get inside the artist mind for a second.. I would love to know what you see when you do something so full of depth and emotion. Your artwork is excellent!
I'll try again :) I can see by the number of comments that this work is widely appreciated..and so it should be...an absolutely stunning piece, as a young artist, I take my hat (artists apron) off to you. :)

WHEN I LOOK AT THIS PORTRAIT, I SEE THE WHOLE CYCLE OF LIFE. HIS EYES HAVE SEEN MANY THING, BUT THEY ARE ALIVE, WHILE HIS FLESH IS DECAYED. WE ARE BOUND TO OUR BODY IF WISDOM DOES NOT FREE US AND LET THE SPIRIT FLY. THE BODY IS ONLY FORM, THE SPIRIT IS ENERGY. (MEDITATING ON YOUR IMAGE). THANKS.
Do you see the difference between this piece adn your 'mazzy through the years? I can see it, this one has power from itsel. I didn't doubt your technic and now your choises ar growing. MIeke
