About The Artwork
I call this elegant woman Alika, meaning "truthful; most beautiful". I love the spontaneity and quality of the mark, each line fresh and expressive. I aim for minimalism in my work where positive and negative play against each other to form an image the viewer can recognise. In all my portraits I pay close attention to the eyes to draw the viewer in and make him or her understand the subject more. This was an exercise in cosmetic beauty where I contrasted the very loose spontaneous nature of charcoal with the refined look of an elegant woman.

South Africa
I am a renowned international film director living in Cape Town. When I am not behind the lens or chasing deadlines, I find solace behind a canvas in my home studio in Hout Bay, where I pursue one of my greatest passions. My preferred medium is charcoal, an unforgiving material where the freshness of the line and the spontaneity at which it is applied breathes life into my work. My love of light and shade and fast-paced, loose style of drawing captures an uncanny likeness to his subject. Each piece is a work in progress, his ultimate objective is to discover the most expressive mark.
