Artist Notes
I have a book called "Emotionally Expressive" which is a collection of extreme emotional facial expressions (at least I think so). When I saw this photo in National Geographic, I was very moved by his empty and longing eyes, and I thought I have to add this to the book. He is an Afghan solider who badly injured by roadside bomb; his neck was broken, his face smashed and he suffered massive memory lost. However, this drawing was quite a challenge because of a lack of clarity. He was standing by the window and the photo was taken from the other side of the window, so there is a lot of glare introduced in the photo. It seemed to me that his face is scared up quite much, and it made quite difficult for me to read his detailed facial components in addition to the glare. Please note that his facial feature may appear to be distorted due to glare and reflection; I draw him the way I saw on the photo.

The incident could be fortunate, in a way, as my whole perspective toward life has somehow changed. I cannot stop feeling that I am still here for some reason, and it is my destiny to find it. As I am sure, at least, the art has been my passion throughout my life, I came to conclusion that I am left here to pursue my own creation, and doing so actively and diligently since.
I am an extremely solitude person. I have believed that I try to communicate my opinion and emotion with the others though my artworks, but recently, I have noticed that it may not be a case. I do my artworks mainly to meet myself, and the art beco
