This guy's name is Emil. He is Cuban-American and loves travelling, art history, and desserts. He is an avid gardener and breeds butterflies in his spare time. Sadly, most of his garden was destroyed by Hurricane Ian in October 2022, but he has plans to redo the whole thing.

This series began as ordinary compulsive doodling of some of the faces I came across at my restaurant job. It has now become a full collection - some of these people I know quite well, some not at all. I like to think that I'm connected to each one of them in a way and I hope this series touches someone.
