What makes me tick
When I go to my bright and airy atelier in the mornings, I take my photos, newspaper clippings, books, texts, postcards of people with me. They're the starting point for my colourful and bright Pop Art portraits. Mostly of women, sometimes men, but mostly of women. I start with a hand-pulled print on a gelliplate, using acrylics and a treasure trove of stamps, stencils, goldleaf and pens and then finish off with a portrait image. The finished pieces are mostly bold, sometimes monochrome. I do like a bit of variety.
The canvases are then transformed into art prints which I sign and number as limited editions and which I then take to the little post office around the corner where the staff knows me.
