“My love for all art forms has always been my motivation to chase the dream
of becoming successful in my passion. By embracing originality in my artistic
journey, I hope to not only be inspired, but also to inspire...
I have also recently launched a commercial range of paintings supplied to various gift shops and galleries as a more affordable form of my art. This gives all art lovers the chance to have a piece of their own without spending too much.
I call my work dexpressionism. The reason being that I couldn't as of yet decide what exact style my art is classified as.
Although I am influenced by many artists and a combinations of styles & technique including my photography, I am still in the process of developing my own unique style.
The "" SUBJECT "" is based on modern day woman/people and I make use of some fashion elements, as reference to specific time and setting.
The use of mostly black & white and now extremely bright colours is the foundation of the exploration of my style. The Black & white and high contrast images seems to portray and express emotion more intensely than other.
Have a look at the work of American Mc Gee... his drawings are way more fantacy based -but definately makes for interesting reference material. My favourite artist at this time is without any doubt : Mr Jack Vettriano...."
