The "Homage" works are part of an ongoing series of homage to
great artists that I feel have influenced my work over many years.
The first pieces in this series are tapestries and the last three
have been drawings worked in conte and charcoal.
These black and white portraits of the artists alternate with
interpretations of one the works by the artist.
The images are deconstructed and put together again in a new
way.
The black and white photographs reflect my interest in the human
form. Along with the face the body has always been a source of
continuous fascination for me.
An endless variety of shape and form provides constant
inspiration.
