Outsiders detail

This is a detail from a panel of four faces on an art work entitled 'Outsiders'. It was painted by Ricky Romain, an artist friend of mine. Ricky was trying to express the agony of being an outsider in society today. I think the hopelessness and despair are expressed really well on this face.
