Redefining how art is seen and experienced ™

My work sets to capture someone’s personality, their mood and expression.
Each work offers a contemporary bold style and is painted expressively using oils, oil sticks, spray paint, pastels or mixed media.
The heavy bodied texture and thick application of paint lends a weight to the personality of each painting in colour and gesture.
My current work is bold and figurative.
It focuses on the essence of face, using gestural marks to capture the image in impasto lines and contours with a fauvist-style.
I also experiment with built up oil glazes. I want to create awareness to the viewer of complexities of personality and colourful deftness of character.’
