Modus Operandi

As a painter I'm quite versatile and work in various fields 
including large scale children's murals, house paint 
splattered abstracts of all sizes 5x5cm-5x5m, oil painted 
illustration/fantasy/surrealism, and figurative and portraiture 
in both oils and charcoal.


My figurative work is my most consuming passion. Starting by 
finding a model who inspires me, mostly women of all shapes 
and sizes at the moment. I'm really getting into veins and 
the strange little lumps and bumps we all have that make us 
truly individual. I then find an inspiring setting, this almost 
always revolves around a corner , nook or cranny that catches a 
nice shaft of afternoon light. The perfect light is what will make 
or break a painting in my opinion. I love the tension and mood set 
by the contrast between deep shadows and glowing light. I think it 
reflects the dichotomies with in us all.
