Series

Animalia
Girls

Medium

Canvas, Oil

Girls behind masks, girls inside beasts, girls who are the beast. Animalia is a recurring fascination with the animal kingdom filtered through portraiture: horns, scales, feathers and fur as armour, metaphor, and second skin.

Girls

Not a series so much as a persistent subject. Girls keeps returning: faces, moods, colour, character. It is the thread that runs through everything else, the default mode, the place the work comes back to when it isn't going anywhere in particular.
