There's something going on with these portraits but I can't put my finger on it. Like 'Guess Again', there's a feeling that the shape has been forced in some way. I've tried flipping them, filling in to get a silhouette, spinning them round, but it's escaping me. I guess one day I'll say "Ahhh, I knew it", but until then, I'll continue to be puzzled. Of course, I may be way off beam.
We have a library patron who looks just like that; I can have him bagged and sent over for reference, if you like. I've already been trying to get the kids to build squirrel poles during craft time, all we need to do is bait them with computers set to myspace and a few costco salamis.

Actually, they're just portraits.
