Statement


We live in an over-complicated with visual information bombarding us every day. Our eyes are busier than ever.

To relieve this constant assault of our senses, I present my original art in black and white - with all the shades of grey in between. Keeping it pure and simple is my way of life.

My original drawing style captures the unique character of my subjects. Inspired by nature, I specialise in charcoal drawing with animals and birds as my preferred subjects depicting the details and movement that make up their spirit.

Light, dark, loose, tight, still, in motion – these are the key elements I incorporate in my artwork.
