"I have always believed that no artist can paint a human face that carries the true feelings and emotions that are drawn on an individual's face. A picture is nearly the closest way to capture the human emotion. Our eyes are powerful in their expression, powerful in delivering a message of love, a message of hate, a message of peace or a message of hope. A message that saves us hundreds of words, bottles of ink and trees of paper. The message I try to deliver is a reminder that our power exists within and that an eye's look is worth a thousand words."
