My work is rooted in portraiture, but it reaches beyond likeness. I am drawn to what lives under the surface, the tension between what is revealed and what remains unspoken.
Each painting is built through layers of mark making, disruption, softness, and controlled chaos. I care deeply about structure, composition, and visual truth, but I resist prettiness for its own sake. I want the painting to hold. To carry weight. To feel honest.
The result is contemporary portraiture that holds atmosphere, emotion, and presence: alive, raw, and human.
