Each artist has a particular niche that is their own. It appears as though Jack Morefield has mastered the use of string-like lines.

The massive collection of [portrait paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glass-portraits) keep to the same style as the one before it but somehow don’t become plain as the photos deepen. Each of the faces captures a different emotion and the lines continue to emphasize facial expression and that deeper feeling.

At first I found the entire collection a little creepy, but as you scroll through the images you begin to look past the lines and into a clear portrait.
