Painting Portraits, to bring out the Emotions

David Kassan is an American Artist who was born in Arkansas.  He is part of a wave of artists, that are not contented with just painting and drawing portraits of people, to achieve the best likeness they can.  Their main goal is to get their models to emote and capture that, on paper or canvas.  To see how important it is for him to capture the person behind the painting, we have included below, a video, where he creates a mini movie to tell a story about his subject which, coupled with the beautiful music, really makes for wonderful viewing.
