QUESTIONS
Artwork
A: My artwork is created primarily using oil-based mediums with the highest quality artist-grade professional paints, ensuring rich colour depth, longevity, and quality finishes. I prefer working on canvas substrates due to the unique texture and tactile quality it brings, enhancing the overall aesthetic and feel of each piece. Additionally, supplementary materials such as graphite, charcoal and oil sticks are sometimes incorporated, and these details are clearly listed alongside each artwork to provide transparency and appreciation of the techniques involved. This careful selection of materials and methods reflects my commitment to producing premium, durable art that delivers both visual impact and lasting value for collectors and enthusiasts.
A: I specialise in pieces crafted from natural, raw, and unstructured fabrics such as organic linen, canvas, and tarlatan, which provide a distinctive texture and depth. I also like to incorporate textured threads made from cotton, wool, and waxed linen thread to enhance the tactile quality of each work. To achieve a unique aesthetic, the fabrics are stained using a combination of inks, watercolour paints, bitumen, rust, and coffee. This approach not only reflects the artist’s commitment to natural materials but also creates visually rich, organic effects that align closely with my ideals.
A: Due to the uniqueness of each piece, some artworks sell quite quickly. If your favourite piece has already been sold, I recommend following my Instagram account, where I regularly share studio progress, new creations, and the latest works in real time. This gives you early access to upcoming pieces and exclusive updates, helping you stay informed and find new artworks that resonate with you. Staying connected through Instagram ensures you won't miss out on future opportunities to acquire distinctive and original artworks from my collection.
A: I currently do not accept special commissions. My creative process thrives on artistic freedom and exploration, allowing each piece to evolve naturally without a predetermined outcome. This approach enables me to focus on the emotional impact and design principles of every painting, rather than adhering to specific client requests. I believe that this openness is essential to maintaining the integrity and unique expression of each individual piece. Customers can explore my collection of originals in the studio where you have the opportunity to connect with a completed piece of artwork that embody my philosophy.
