Welcome to the Atelier of a Modern Old Master where classical technique meets bespoke commissions
Work in progress, underpainting stage
I produce bespoke museum-quality oil paintings, crafted in the tradition of the Old Masters incorporating modern subject matter and themes.
Tailored commissions and refined re-creations of the classics, continuing in the lineage of Caravaggio, Vermeer, and the Baroque Masters.
