HONESTY

There is nothing formal about this portrait, but then your works involving people rarely are. It is an intimate moment shared with your subject, which is what makes it so compelling. So often, the presence of a camera is perceived as an intrusion, the art of the portraitist is not to let this be so. A good and truthful moment caught, as you rightly say. 

Splendid capture of a splendid face!

very good expression here.
