"If you don't want to pay some more, (Ah, ah, Mr. Heath)
'Cause I'm the taxman, Yeah, I'm the taxman." - The Beatles

I invite you to enter the world of "Mr. Heath," where abstract forms and fragmented colors come together as a figure both familiar and elusive. Here, geometry breathes with an inner life—blocks of yellow, red, blue, green, and brown intertwine to create a presence suspended between solidity and dream.

The angular face, elongated body, and the neighboring mosaic-like structure hover against a shifting backdrop that melds a cloud-filled sky with textured stone, grounding the figure in a space that feels both real and imagined. Scattered silhouettes anchor the scale, hinting at stories beyond the visible.

This piece continues my exploration of “Faces and Facades”, a series of hand-embellished prints, where people and places mingle in whispered tension, and where each element holds a quiet enigma, waiting to be uncovered. Here the ordinary folds into the mystical, and the architectural becomes a vessel for unseen narratives, all named after characters from songs by The Beatles.
