A face is every experience of one’s life made manifest. The lines, the tilt of the head, and, oh … the eyes … the portals through which I enter the inner life of my subject and open the window into their emotional world. It’s about reading between the lines … tuning in to the unspoken … revealing a moment thought private, unobserved, when the guard is down. That exquisite moment before the retreat … the moment before the walls go up. To see more of Papandreas’s work, visit www.voy-art.com.
