This is an idea I wanted to do for a long time. Do a portrait of the same subject in many different styles and techniques. For a long time I could not decide who I should draw, paint, and sculpt. I was thinking - It should be a controversial person , so I could have an open field, showing different approaches to the images I am going to make.
I got the idea from one bad politician in my country. This politician was talking about Mr. George Soros as if he was the devil on earth, and recently changed his opinion, he meets him often, and he is suddenly very fond of him.
