For a walk into the birth of night
Our love is strong
and your caress I long for
Until the early morning light.

Art

Currently working on large scale drawings that explore the geological through firstly making small clay shapes based on the organic and turning them into compositions that allow for creating through full on interpretation. His sculpture is both in clay, geometric explorations in wood, sometimes creating geometries in sticks, the use of colouring the wood gives a magical effect. His paintings range from interpreting music and to compositions from extracting from the landscape in transit with the revisitation done through previous drawings. He is at this moment on a new journey of composing paintings by borrowing from realism to dynamics in figurative form.
