His paintings seek to reveal the unique inner character of each subject, using dynamic brushstrokes and vibrant, overlapping colors. While the faces remain figurative and identifiable, thick layers of paint and spontaneous marks create a lively surface where abstraction and figuration merge, giving the portraits a strong emotional and psychological presence.

Color plays a central role in his work. Vibrant colors overlap and collide, portraits conveying vibrancy and vitality. The interplay between abstraction and figuration gives the paintings a strong psychological presence, the subject appears both tangible and fleeting at the same time. Signed by Maker See less
