Jeff


Najtamnije je ispod svece. (Serbo-Croatian for "It is darkest beneath the candle" or "What you seek could be near yet unnoticed."

I love a good face. That's why I love to do portraits. To look and look and look - tracing every contour with my mind, memorizing, mesmerizing, appreciating and adoring that divine perfection that is in everyone, yet utterly absolutely unique, - this is something you just can't do when you are out and about - stare at people like I like to. Faces speak to me - even if it is only my imagination that says I might be able to see the soul behind the eyes, that I might understand - direct immediate communication or pure imagination. I will never know.
