These
are a series of paintings that I made just after the Black Series, moving chromaticaly
from blue-black tones to red-yellow tones. The faces are taken from photographs
off the internet and barely altered so that the tones would go towards the warm
side of the spectrum. These paintings are almost universally liked by all who
see them, and two have already been sold, so they seem to work pretty well.
