I draw graphite portraits of women that embody power and mystery...Occasionally I use a photo and integrate it digitally if the picture’s quality is too low for realistic drawing. This is often the case with older iconic photos for example of Brigitte Bardot. After I’ve finished the drawing it’s time to put it aside and grab a canvas to go wild with paint, collage, cement, stencils,...Anything I feel the artwork needs! When the realistic drawing and the abstract work are finished I take a high-res photo of both and digitally merge the two together. I then play with colors, shapes, highlights, and shades to make the artwork really come to life. Depending on the outcome I have the art printed behind high-quality plexiglass or on (brushed) aluminum. In the latter, I sometimes choose to add extra paint and collage elements and coat the artwork with epoxy resin to give the artwork a lot of depth and body.
