Quote

The face is the soul of the body.

A face is a road map of someone's life. Without any need to amplify that or draw attention to it, there's a great deal that's communicated about who this person is and what their life experiences have been.

The human face is the organic seat of beauty. It is the register of value in development, a record of Experience, whose legitimate office is to perfect the life, a legible language to those who will study it, of the majestic mistress, the soul.

Faces are the ledgers of our experience.

When I draw a character, very often as I'm doing a face, my face mirrors the expression.

A face is like the outside of a house, and most faces, like most houses, give us an idea of what we can expect to find inside.

The most important thing in the face is the eyes, and if you can make the eyes talk, you're halfway there.

What is a face, really? Its own photo? Its make-up? Or is it a face as painted by such or such painter? That which is in front? Inside? Behind? And the rest? Doesn't everyone look at himself in his own particular way? Deformations simply do not exist.
