This is one of my favorite portraits. I would love to get it printed one of these days. Hopefully soon. I remember browsing through images on google one summer a few years back and finding this particular piece. My computer has crashed a few times since that summer, and each time I am forced to reinstall my operating system I must start looking for my favorite files of art, and music, which I continually fail to back up.I have recently saved all of my music, approximately thirteen gigabytes, to my boyfriend's external hard drive. I have never know the identity of either the young Asian model featured in this portrait, or the photographer. I cannot remember where exactly I obtained this image from. Every time I search for this portrait on google I fail to locate it. I eventually realize that I have it hosted in an online photo-journal called photobucket, which is how I am able to continuously resolve this unyielding google search dilemma. This makes it much more difficult for me to be capable of owning a print. I am hoping that if I take a j-peg file on my flash drive to a printing shop they will be able to make a print. I have yet to investigate this option. If I cannot get a print made this way, I may consider posting an ad in craigslist. Really, I would just like to buy one from the photographer, or surviving relatives.
In any event there are many pieces I plan to collect over the next few years. I adore James Jean's painting, the Maze, as well as several other paintings and portraits by that artist. I do appreciate Ray Caesar's work as well. Some more than others. I especially like Caesar's Metatron, 2008, and day break, also 2008. Both pieces can be seen by following the following link: http://www.raycaesar.com/gallery/2008
