Welcome to my portfolio. This collection features unique portraits that capture the essence of models, actors, musicians, and often friends. Every portrait is created through bespoke sessions in luxurious settings such as high-end cafés or restaurants. These brief but meaningful encounters, lasting around 20-30 minutes, allow me to create timeless art from a fleeting moment.
The Art of Bespoke Portraiture
Every portrait session is carefully designed to highlight the individuality of each subject. The process is guided by the charm of natural daylight, which brings out the subject’s unique features in the most flattering way. As a result, the final artwork radiates elegance and depth.
Once the portrait is complete, I enrich it with 24-carat gold leaf. This addition elevates the artwork, adding a layer of luxury that symbolizes emotional and spiritual depth. Gold leaf enhances the monochrome design, giving it vibrancy and warmth, and turning each piece into something truly special.
Why Blue?
My choice of blue as the primary medium is deeply personal. For my 30th birthday, I received a fountain pen paired with magnetic blue ink. This sparked a love for the monochrome palette, which balances simplicity and precision. Blue emphasizes observation and intricate details, allowing me to capture the essence of each subject authentically.
“The addition of gold leaf beautifully complements the blue, creating a striking contrast. Together, these elements capture the balance between precision and artistry, while adding richness to each portrait.”
The Tête-à-Tête Experience
Creating a portrait is more than just a technical process. It’s about connection. Each portrait session is an intimate experience, offering a brief yet meaningful interaction. This tête-à-tête allows me to capture not just the physical appearance, but also the essence of the subject.
During these sessions, I pay close attention to every detail, from the subject’s facial expression to their outfit. These moments, although brief, are woven into the final artwork, making each portrait feel alive and personal.
