The Journey Continues
As an artist, I’ve embarked on a lifelong quest to explore and refine my craft. By meticulously copying the works of lesser-known artists of our time, as well as the masters, I’ve developed a profound understanding of various styles and techniques. This exercise has not only honed my skills but also allowed me to distil the essence of their approaches, ultimately forging a personal style that is uniquely mine.
Through this process, I’ve cultivated a distinct voice in my use of colour and paint application, which is reflected in the nuanced textures and expressive brushstrokes that bring my artworks to life. Additionally, fulfilling painting commissions and creating custom images has further refined my technique, enabling me to tailor my art to the specific needs and visions of my clients.
This journey of artistic discovery has been incredibly rewarding, pushing me to continually challenge myself and grow as an artist. I feel fortunate to have found a medium that allows me to express my creativity and connect with others on a deeper level. As I continue on this path, I’m excited to see where my art takes me.
