About the artwork

I was tidying up the studio this week and found this drawing of Marilyn Monroe I did back in 2012! It looks like the first monochrome study using a pastel pencil (I found them as well) I did on black paper, the paper pad has only one page missing so this was the first - I now need to do more. The reason for this drawing may have been to look at how monochrome work on black could be done in preparation to painting on black leather; it worked! After posting it online and seeing the positive reaction to it I needed to get it framed and offer it for sale. Offering the drawing in a mount, framed, strung and ready to wall hang.

I am a portraiture artist, full-time since 2013 and specialising in painting on leather although I can and do occasionally use traditional media. My subjects do vary - it keeps me on my toes and new challenges are a good thing. Leather art. Many of my artworks listed here are painted in the medium of leather, this art is challenging to work with but the properties of each hide gives an aesthetic that will never, in my experience, be matched by paper or canvas.
