Artist Statement
An experimental figure study created with charcoal pencil, plaka paint and fixed with shellac (from the back). The drawing was first stretched over stretcher bars before applying the shellac on the back, allowing it to dry, and then applying the black paint. Stretching the paper over the bars before applying the wet media ensured the thin paper dried as flatly as possible. The piece was then cut from the stretcher and mounted on archival Japanese rice paper (with long aging Artist's Adhesive) to reinforce the papers strength.
Authenticated with artist's (my) Signature in Graphite on the back.
Comes with a signed 'Certificate of Authenticity' and will be packaged for the best protection wrapped in acid-free tissue paper with padding etc. Sent rolled with an inner and outer tube to ensure it reaches you in perfect condition. Recycled packaging material is used whenever possible.

I have been incredibly lucky to be able to create art as my professional vocation for more than 15 years. Being able to explore and delve into this passion deeply full time, is a gift I am continually grateful for...
Style: I tend to lean towards realistic renderings with abstraction coming into play to hopefully create exciting & mentally stimulating pieces.. The human form is one of my favourite subjects at the moment but I am on a continuous journey of creative discovery in style and content..
Inspiration: Being of Anglo-Indian descent and growing up in the urban multi racial & cultural, sunny shores of Malaysia has undoubtedly shaped my worldview and driven me to always try to represent diversity in my work as much as possible. My conceptual pieces are usually developed and inspired by what lurks within the pages of my second love - books, and the inevitable influences of the unique and 'exciting' times we live in.. I see the persistent honing of my artistic skills as integral to creating, and exploring and developing my skills in differing mediums and techniques is one of the many amazing and ever inspiring parts of the process.
