From the Artist: "I was working on a series of paintings, computer enhanced drawings titled, 'Eyes on _______ '(I fill in the blank with what I'm focusing on). After witnessing the tragedy of Sep 11, I could not sleep until I put on paper, the terrible image building inside my head.

The image I created shows symbolic faces of people who lost their life on that upsetting day and showing their souls rising slowly towards the heavens with the smoke. Also, I drew eyes peering between the buildings... the eyes of the people who thought of this awful act.... eyes that are still looking and searching to do more harm."
