    So intense and serene at the same time… Love the shape of the face and what you’ve done with the eyes is incredible. You are an amazing artist! What an unique style you have!

    Elsh, this is an incredible portrait. Kafka is still very new to me, I just finished “The Metamorphosis” – got any recomendations ?

    hey sjem, i find kafka hard. not in a literary sense but in a get to the point already sense. but it is this element that brings me back agian and again. somehow he manages to build a total sense of alienation and anxiety without divulging much at all. kind of like the david lynch of writing. anyway, all that said, ‘the castle’ still remains one of my favourite all time works of fiction. quite perplexing, very isolating, it questions freedom and fear and sets up a mood rarely achieved by a book.
