ART

Learning through material and repetition.

My visual work moves between graphite, charcoal, tattoo practice, miniatures and digital experimentation. Each medium asks for a different kind of control, but the underlying process remains observation, repetition and refinement.

TRADITIONAL STUDIES

Learning to see more clearly.

Drawing is where I slow down and study form, value, texture and edges.

Graphite & Charcoal

The work moves between detailed graphite pieces, smaller observational studies and early charcoal exploration—using each drawing to better understand light, structure and controlled transitions.

TATTOO PRACTICE

Rebuilding control, one study at a time.

After first learning tattooing more than two decades ago, I have returned to the practice through synthetic-skin studies—rebuilding control in linework, black-and-grey shading and composition.

OTHER FORMS

From physical objects to digital experiments.

Some ideas are explored through objects and paint. Others begin as digital compositions and generative studies.

PHYSICAL PRACTICEMINIATURES · 3D PRINTS

Miniatures & 3D Prints

Printing, preparing and painting physical figures combines technical process with slower material decisions around surface, colour, contrast and wear.

Digital & Generative Work

Generative tools form part of an exploratory visual workflow used to test composition, atmosphere and possible creative directions. Selected results are curated and, where relevant, developed further through editing, layout and project context.

THE WORK CONTINUES

Some pieces are finished. Others exist to teach me what to do next.

The practice develops through observation, repetition and the willingness to begin again in a different material.
