The model male Blake has roots of white and black people, and he seems to be often reacted to people who are meeting for the first time, "some people" but I do not know for a moment, they are troubled by classification. Alexa who thought interesting when playing there is a white and blue one that symbolizes "white people" and "black people"monochromeI decided to make it. Blake which was painted was not a "white" nor "blue" but a combination of two colors, finished in a portrait that can not identify the race of the model at first sight.
