The artist describes his Face Vase series as less decorative and more illustrative than his previous vase series. Each vase in the series has a relevant secondary motif on the reverse side of the vase that characterizes the individual face that is portrayed. Each visage consists of clear facial features that are rendered in a way to personify a human reaction to a situation or to convey some trait or dimension of a personality.
