dissembled portrait

i was influenced by david hockneys photography pieces where he took several stills from several photographs of one person to make up their 'portrait'
this made me think about how showing a personality of a person doesnt always come through in a clear image of their face.
by focusing on parts of the face that  really show elements of his personality - such as his mouth as he was constantly smiling and the wrinkles round his eye which i thought he used with character when he expressed his cheeky personality, will hopefully paint a life like person with a story and personality rather then a flat image.

i have played around with overlaying objects, quotes etc to the crops to emphasize and visualise the stories he was telling me about his life.

 really like the set of 3 crops and how they are layered out in a back to front order - mouth the eyes, but yet you would still be able to visualise his face - again showing that a illustration/piece of art doesn't need to be obvious as people like to work things out for themselves, feeling creatively involved in the piece.
