Original artwork description:

My work is inspired by the people around me – friends and close family feature predominantly. I never seek to flatter, but rather to unveil hidden narratives and record situations the way I see or recall them, representing for me a memory, relationship, event, or even a feeling, making each piece very personal. These can be single portraits, or scenes featuring groups and gatherings. I sometimes alter narratives by juxtaposing figures together, however, primarily it is determined by my perception of different situations. I may choose to produce each image in oils, acrylics, watercolour or charcoal, as each one has individual qualities and challenges, and can express the image in different ways.
