this makes me think of Andre Derain's painting of Matisse. I think it's the colours.
the complexity of people is really well articulated. I find it interesting how we display different facets of ourselves to different people and depending on the context too.

Looking at this makes me feel hopeful. I love the little black swirl in his chest near his heart- I think it's that lighthearted energy, like your heart skipping a beat.
