Artist Statement:
My art displays a mix of subject matter; from portraits to still-life. I prefer to focus on portraiture, so I paint portraits of my loved ones in a variety of poses and surreal contexts that best illustrates what they each mean to me. These paintings and sketches are highly personal.
Surrealism is a big influence for me, and in several paintings I have paid homage to my favourite images and symbolism from Bosch, Kandinsky and Dali.
I work in a variety of mediums including oil, acrylic, pencil, pastel and charcoal for sketches. In my gallery I've tried to include all examples of these, and works which demonstrate the different painting styles I like to experiment with.
I paint as a hobby (my dream is to paint full-time) and am available for commission.
Thanks for visiting, I hope you enjoy my work!...
