Collection
I have always enjoyed painting faces.. they are not
necessarily of people I know, most often they are imaginary.
They are not copies of photographs, I try to present
the subjects in a straight on, direct pose to bring
out aspects of their personalities that would be lost
in a mere photograph. My aim is simplicity, the bare
essentials. The works are in charcoal and acrylic on
canvas, sometimes with a touch of dark cadmium red.
There is a quality in black and white which I find to
be very different from colour and charcoal to be a very
fascinating medium.
