I've
always
been
fascinated
by
the
human
face
and
form.
I
believe
that
the
greatest
challenge
in
painting
portraits
is
to
get
both
the
spirit
and
the
likeness
of
the
subject.
If
you
don't
have
both,
the
portrait
is
a
figure
painting.
It
can
be
beautiful
and
wonderful
to
look
at,
but
it's
not
a
portrait
of
a
specific
person
unless it has those dual qualities.
