Portrait Collection

Looking Within
Intaglio
47cm x 47cm
A multilayered intaglio print incorporating cutout elements to create a three-dimensional layered “print” internally. This artwork is self-reflective, shows a dedication of time and is a mosaic of the multitude of pieces that identify who I am. Intricately detailed, technically challenging and pushing the boundaries of what I am capable of.
Society’s Gift To Women
Woodblock
84cm x 60cm
A detailed and graphic artwork commenting on society’s relentless pursuit of beauty in the modern world. The graphic black and white style highlights the stark reality of focusing on appearance.
Not Just a Pretty Face
Digital Print
120cm x 84cm
10,000 images depicting symbols of beauty and worth merge to form more that a pretty face. The artwork’s meaning evolves from a simple portrait when viewed at a distance to revealing and questioning a woman’s value on closer inspection.
Pieces of Me
Intaglio
20cm x 20cm
An intricate and detailed etching showing the connectivity between family members. Varied mark making distinguishes the different subjects while the monochrome palette unifies the familial connection.
The Traditionalist
Intaglio
15cm x 15cm
The Traditionalist is slightly formal, a little reserved, but confident in who he is. In this modern world with its strong reliance on electronically generated imagery, he has been created using old world skills and techniques.
Making My Mark
Intaglio
15cm x 15cm
Contemporary printmaking is not a medium usually associated with portraiture. The marks made on an etching plate are an integral part of printmaking. This artwork uses one hundred squares of mark making to form the portrait of who I am as a printmaker.
