fortune faces

So the faces of the artworks are always coming and going under my pen or brush or hands... the immoveable objects of internal strife and struggle are always there. I find that it is strange in a way to delve into these things artistically however lately I'm comfortable with the thought of being able to work these things in. Some faces I learn to manipulate... if they are for hatred or pain, I work them to the opposite side, trying to improve my life and my images and my expression. Hopefully this will reverse the negative aspects of myself. The creative output being a ritual for change.
