Micky

Micky

Local establishment irritant and all round superb human being--Micky.

Part of an ongoing 'Beard' project that is exploring the paradigm of commitment and the limitations that long term commitments places on identity--how we are known. I remain fascinated at that inter-play between the two in those that can withstand the numerous changes in fashion/appearance. There is no shortage of beards in Asheville.

Always enjoy your portraits, Monty. This is no exception. Plus, he looks like an older version of me with my bald head and winter beard! The pose and stare appear very "real" to me. Not sure how you manage that with your cumbersome equipment.... Nice work! Shawn
 
Monty, I really like his gaze. It's 'timeless.'

I will say that his hand looks huge compared to his face.
I'm not sure if it's the angle or if he just has large hands...
 
Monty.... I've got more hair than Micky but if I see you tomorrow you will see Micky's cloned brother. Nice portrait with the wooden beast.

Money, this is one of my favorite portraits of yours. Very communicative. Strong expression. Some day I'll have to sneak a peak at the real prints...
