​Artist’s Statement
This double self-portrait is heavily influenced by the work of Francis Bacon whose work I have come to admire greatly over the last few years.

I aimed to create an image that evoked the visceral marks of Bacon’s techniques and the simultaneously controlled and chaotic impression his work conveys. As opposed to many of my works, I chose to embrace loose and fluid brushwork that would bring the form of the portraits to life.
