It was a sort of act of desperation.
I have a pool of models at the open studio, but they are pretty much the same ones. I figured branching out into faces that have enough of an ego to love to be looked at and are doing a character, so they don't care how perfect they end up would give me a lot of options.
Taking a "given" pool of faces made for a good exercise in working with a range of types and by forcing myself to do all of them, I challenge myself to put unusual groupings and come up with exciting solutions in rendering.
The actual impetus for this, was an exercise for boardroom or corporate portraits. Commercial feel but likenesses for annual reports or contemporary decorating.
AND it is all based on my own snapshots. I do have the advantage of attempting to get the better shots, but if I am given a hand full of Polaroids, I am sort of working in guerrilla conditions making me ready for anything!
