The Blue Curtain

Oil on particle board, 8"x8"

I have these reoccuring characters in my sketchbooks over the years of bodies, often dressed in historical clothing with bouqets of flowers for heads.

 

   The process of this moment here made me fall in love with depicting dappled light

Self Portrait

Gouache, colored pencil on paper, 11x13

This piece isn't exactly subtle but it's a tribute to my Spanish family that faught against the Fascist regime. It is a portrait

of my younger self, expressing pride in him.

Color experiment

Gouache, colored pencil, on sketch paper

I loosely referenced photographer Nadav Kander's portrait of Jean Rochefort in order to experiment with color and texture in portraiture
