Mira (2019) (sold) A commission for a drawing of a young woman that I already painted 9 years ago. Then a teenager, now a young woman and an excellent way to study the same face grown up. Special request was it to use the same color combination as in my drawing ‘sans titre – 06-10-16’ […]

Initiatrix – 03-12-18

The third art work in my new series on Egypt. I experimented with my personal style ‘roundism’ in combination with realism and surrealism.
