Why are we so interested in making art about one another? This is an interesting question and I will answer it with another question. What is so interesting about the similarities and differences of other peoples faces. I love the inability to answer this question because its the reason why I take these pictures. There is an absolute mystery of it. I think somethings that portrait artists try to portray in their work is the story of the person just by their expression. Or maybe they are taking a picture that brings you into a memory or thought process of your past. Photo is a single moment in time. When drawing or painting you choose that moment. However in photography you must capture that moment at the precise time. Like this picture for instance he seems happy in the image, but upset in the mirror.
