The Early Years

For a decade curiosity led me to nudes, portraits (human and animal), photo-realistic still life, copies of Gauguin and everything in between.

From covering a broad span of styles the nuts-and-bolts, the universal mechanics of what makes a painting, are found. It’s only in hindsight this is apparent and at the time was very frustrating.

In the summer of 2019 I settled down to paint in earnest.
