Artist Statement:
For as far back as I can
remember I’ve held a
fascination for drawing and
painting people. Wherever I go
I’m looking for the same
things, the characters in the
street, in the doorways, at
the bus stops, or on the
benches. These are the people
I wanted in my pictures and as
Sickert once said “I want my
paintings to be like a page
torn from the book of life”
My vision is to record aspects
of life as I see them without
contrived sentiment and
without taking a moral stance.
These paintings are about the
observation of the reality of
human existence in our
society.
"I love above all things, the
aspect of people who've grown
old without changing their
ways, abandoning themselves to
the jaws of time."
Paul Cézanne
