So recently I have been doing a lot of Biro work convoluted from the understanding of continuous lines and portraiture. I will be the first to admit that this isn't a revolutionary addition to my body of work, however, it is the facial expression which has motivated this post. The vacant expression contrasts with the fact the eyes are looking directly into the audience, implying an idea of intrusion to the image, we have been caught in the act of looking at someone who either wasn't prepared or didn't want to be looked at. The irony being we have, this piece of work was intended for a dear friend of mine as a birthday present evoking the concept of this not being an abstract piece of work but an intimate image intended for the subject.
