Custom made portraits on a quality Canson paper and hotsell Othello soft pastel medium.

These custom hand made portraits are rendered on quality Canson paper and with the combination of Othello and Schminke pastel pencils, a high-end brand of pastel. The unique quality of the pastel technique allows for a smooth blending of colours that beautifully accommodate the nature of subtle portrait features.

I have been creating portraits for more than 30 years. The art of capturing the uniqueness and hotsell exclusiveness of every face never stops to excite me. I am drawn to a human expression as much as to facial anatomy. Feeling the connection with the subject is what brings life to the portrait.

I found this Leonardo Da Vinci's inspirational quote very relatable: “Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art".
