I picked up a flyer/postcard when I dropped by Nano's exhibit a few days ago. It featured an interesting painting being exhibited at The Drawing Room gallery (http://www.drawingroomgallery.com/contemporary/html/main.php).

I was amazed at these charcoal sketches. They were drawn by Kiko Escora. This collection is part of Escora's "Map of the Problematique" exhibit.

Each and every one of his charcoal sketch depicts a person who's face is either fully or partially covered. For me, these portraits appear to have a live and personality of their own. As if they have their own secret stories to tell.
