These are the last two pieces I made before packing away my paint, brushes and most of my life.

The portrait of Kurt Cobain is in the style I’ve recently returned to in my current work.

My experiments with abstraction are on hold for the time being. These studies are now ready to be scaled up for larger paintings.

I try to emulate traditional methods when painting digitally, for example, using grainy pencil brushes to create hand-drawn elements.
