Two Portraits of a Young Man

One of a series of portraits taken in the late 1980's.  This one of Paul is done in high-contrast and strong light, accenting the facial planes.  No attempt was made to disguise flaws; there weren't any.

Another portrait of Paul, this one using a wooden artist's modeling hand as a contrast between the warmth of his skin and the mechanical quality of the hand.

Here the strong one-source light delicately models the sensuous features.
