ABOUT THE ARTIST
I make large-format portraits in charcoal, graphite, and mixed media.
I’m interested in faces because they don’t lie — they carry pressure, history, and whatever someone is trying to hide.Texture matters to me. So does what’s left out.
I let the surface do some of the talking.The work lives in a quiet space, but there’s tension in it — vulnerability next to strength, beauty next to something uncomfortable. Horror, myth, and the subconscious show up naturally. I don’t chase them.Nothing here is decorative.
Everything is made on purpose.
