I am intrigued with the idea of reflecting the realism of modern culture, while using an Old Masters style, or a technique that was applied to painting around the 13th-17th centuries.
In terms of content, my focus ranges from prostitution and the grotesque, to religion, to fashion, glamour & at times, the elite. As a young painter, I try not to put restrictions on my ideas, as I am still developing a sense of self & regularly motivated to ascribe aspects of innovative culture into my paintings.
To name a few, I am greatly influenced by the work of Raphael, Vermeer, Irena Ionesco, Shiele, Sigmar Polke, Patrick Caulfield, and Magritte.
