A selection of portraits and figure paintings in both acrylics and oils. When working with a sitter my style can vary from expressionistic to a more traditional handling of paint and colour. I work from photographs and life and I always prioritise portraying a sense of the subjects essence and emotion.
Below is an example of a portrait-in-progress.
