"The character of a face in a drawing depends not upon its various proportions, but upon a spiritual light which it reflects."
1869 - 1954
Like an artist or a novelist, we all need to see beyond the surface characteristics of the human face. We need to see the individual person who lives within. We have been taught not to judge a book by its cover, yet how many times do we still do it. Inside every person, beyond the hair and the clothes, is something very special. Sometimes it takes work to find that person because the person has hid himself behind so many masks that he does not even know who he is. And the same can be said of ourselves. How many masks would you have to take off before the light within you would shine through?
