About
I am 29 years old. My art life started with drawing helicopters as a child, then dinosaurs from the film Jurassic Park.
Since then, I have been heavily influenced by the photo-realists such as Chuck Close, Malcolm Morley, Richard Patterson and others like James Rosenquist (who paints onto monstrously sized canvasses), Jacques-Louis David (for his carefully staged scenes and representation) and Caravaggio (for the light/dark [chiaroscuro] cinematic effect in his work).
