"I want my paintings to unveil the naked body as an exaggerated mass in such a way that forces the viewer to interact with the work more intimately. Using my palette, I aim to saturate areas of the subject to achieve a kind of confrontation with the flesh."

All my work uses live female models to capture the genuine human form. Mediums range from oils to soft pastels, charcoal, watercolours and ink, ensuring each piece is a unique portrayal to reveal the true essence of the exposed physique.
