When the portrait is becoming "too illustrative", I usually move on to another project and come back. It is always better to work with "fresh eye". The recipient at the office can't wait to see..

My Favorite Person #3. In progress, I got to go.

Mr. Koide may be greater scientist than Einstein to many Japanese. A Scientist with philosophical value fighting against social injustice and Nuclear Power plant Lobbyist .
