My brother looking at my pieces at my black and white exhibit. I think I enjoy most watching how people respond to my work.

Take A Bow, acrylic and ink on canvas, 20” x 20”
There were many layers in this piece. The foundation of this piece was left to splats and dribbles and the unlikely areas it could create. In the end I aimed to pull it together with the line.

Keep Abreast, charcoal and acrylic on paper, 81cm x 57cm
This piece is from a life drawing class.  The model was on the voluptuous side which I prefer as it brings a different dynamic to my work.
