​Artist’s Statement

This intricate portrait depicts the detail of face and personality. 
​My highly realistic black-and-white style draws attention to light and shadow without the distraction of colour. 
​My works are painted using finely ground charcoal and hand-crafted brushes; an organic approach that breathes life and meaning into my portraits.

“I create with a method called ‘painting with charcoal’ using fine animal hair brushes I craft myself, plus charcoal powder, I can achieve a dramatic effect of contrasting light and shadow.  I love using these ancient techniques to create realism, drama and depth in my works.”
