About the Work
Each piece begins with observation—time outdoors, sketches and reference photos, and a lot of attention to colour temperature and atmosphere. In the studio, I build the image in layered oil paint to create depth and longevity. Originals are signed and documented, and prints are produced to preserve colour accuracy and fine detail.
