My Work
The focus of my work is predominately figurative
Self Portrait of a Passionate Art Teacher
oil on canvas 76x76cm
Portraiture
It is important that I explore a depth of realism in my portraits, capturing the nuances of the face, the eyes, the special character of the person and push the contrast of the real figure against a more expressive or decorative background.
The Stripy Bikerider
oil on canvas, 76x76cm
I enjoy playing with color, layering various colors of oil paint to develop an interesting base on which to place my figures.
I really want to develop work that pushes the boundaries and the use and placement of color.
Landscape with Leaves
oil on canvas, 76x76cm
I love painting people, capturing moments & everyday activities of the human condition.
More increasingly I want to show a quick snapshot of lives, events and times that are personal to me but also just those casual encounters that can be anywhere.
