[Digital drawing created in MS Paint on my ancient laptop.] Is it a face? Why is it a face?

COLLECTION! In my opinion, it's a positive thing to share the artwork that I've collected. Several weeks ago, I listened to a portion of an interview with Genesis Breyer P-Orridge in which he discusses the IMPORTANCE of keeping our influences and interests alive. Many wonderful things (songs, books, paintings, comics, toys, etc.,) have fallen into obscurity because people stopped talking about them, sharing them, keeping the works (and the creators) in the public consciousness.
So, I'm sharing my collection, unashamedly. I like to think it's what Genesis would have wanted...

"Don't Look Back (Bad Advice)" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Felt pen and watercolor on reclaimed cardboard with digital embellishments and color tweaking.] Someone told this monster not to look back. I think that's horrible advice, but I'm a fan or recursive projects. DO look back. See what worked. See what went wrong. See if there is something that you can try next time that might lead to a different outcome. I mean, don't ALWAYS look back because being stuck in the past is terrible --- but if you never look back, you'll never learn... ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Face (Of Uncertainty - Structural Twist)" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Ballpoint pen on notebook page with digital embellishments and color.] Thinking out loud (all over his face.) He doesn't seem to be able to fit in with his environment anymore. Was there a change in the PLACE or in the perspective of the individual? ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
https://objkt.com/asset/KT1ABGYuE84UQNDJdWtMEhiBi6yhsfTQ7W56/587
