Passion is the force behind what inspires me. It drives me to create art that is thought provoking to others. I explore abstract and sometimes dark areas of desire and obsession, and create illusions of existence with a touch of fantasy. A sense of surrealism abounds, while the characters radiate an aura of loneliness and tell a story beyond what we see.

My images are available for advertising and / or editorial use as stock for one time or exclusive use. Images can also be purchased as Art Prints without reproduction rights. Prices displayed are for Art Prints. For editorial and commercial rights, and / or assignments please contact me through email.

�The overall look of his portfolio is very soulful and dreamy.�

�A slightly fetishistic approach resounds throughout his work - but his models are not victims or mere damsels in distress - they are quite simply beautiful heroines seeking to break free from the bonds of normality.��

�He is a master of the texture overlay. His work relies on heavy editing, but does not have the 'assembled' or cut and paste look to it but rather organic and painterly.�
