Andrew
I am a mostly self-taught artist and have been painting since 1989. I paint portraits, landscapes, figures and still life.
There is an intensity to depicting the human subject that is essential to capturing a portrait, revealing the character within the likeness. This can inspire vitality in other subjects: my landscapes often contain figures, to give scale, life and a connection to the viewer. My technique draws on both traditional and post-impressionist methods, in ways which not only create the illusion of reality vibrantly, but capture an essence of the subject's inner character. |
