"If it's a likeness, alone, it's not a success. If, through my por-

traits, you can come to know the subjects more meaningfully, if

it synthesizes your feelings towards someone whose work has

imprinted itself on your mind - if you see a photograph and say.

'Yes,this is the person,' with a little new insight - that is a beauti-

ful experience."
