The artist's constant search often begins with the theme, the style, or the types of strokes applied on the canvas. For me, starting a new series has more to do with the colors and textures surrounding the character, so I decided to call this series "Hues."

The interaction of the different colors with the faces represents the various aspects of life that we face, some bright, others somewhat opaque and darker. Still, together, working with each other these various aspects somehow make sense.

Blue is different when we see it by itself then when we look at it next to yellow. Similarly, our experiences, when seen in context, make up a life that we can appreciate only when we take a few steps back to observe it as a whole.
