Party Faces
Artwork details: 3 drawings in pencil and coloured pencil, 4 x 10 inches (10 x 25 cm), 2006.
This was a triptych I did especially for Bridgwater Arts Centre's 'Celebration' Christmas exhibition. A Masquerade seemed an appropriate subject, while giving me the freedom to create something a little disturbing at the same time.
'Party Faces 1'
'Party Faces 2'
'Party Faces 3'
Later on I expanded the idea into two much larger pictures called 'Masquerade 1: Being Monsters' and 'Masquerade 2: Being People' - 'being monsters' was a simple concept just like the pictures above, where the party-goers have grotesque masks, but then I thought a counterpart was needed, because maybe monsters have fancy-dress parties as well, and like to go dressed as people... anyway, you click the titles (or the thumbnail) to see those paintings)

Prints & Original Artwork
You can now buy prints of my work (and a few originals) in my Etsy Shop.

If you are interested in original artwork, I do intend to post a list of currently available artworks in due course, but I'm in the process of moving and re-building a main website, so for the meantime please also email me for more information on originals, and also commissions.
