We often recognize people by their facial profile without be conscious of it.  Tha'ts one of the things I explore in my drawings and wire wall art.. People exclaim: "That looks just like them," not realizing that I've mearly expressed a feature that they view unconsciously.

 

I do it by making a very accurate drawing from one photo or a few assembled photos. Next I remove lines until I have only the essence of the image.  In this cae that was the outline of the faces and characteristic hair.

 

This piece was made as a wedding gift.  They loved it. The drawing was made from two photos I found of them on Facebook.  The final wire wall mural is about 40 inches tall, made of 9 gauge steel wire and powder coated gloss black.
