Window portrait

December 18, 2023

This mixed media portrait was based on the photograph (see below) of a woman looking through the window of a fast food outlet on Bishopsgate opposite Liverpool Street Station. After eating her meal she decided to stay for a smoke and keep warm.

Centenerian Portrait

December 11, 2023

I was delighted to meet this centenerian woman in Sylhet, Bangladesh in 1992. She was the great grandmother of a friend. I photographed her in her garden and was impressed with her energy as she was still looking after the plants she’d nurtured over many years. This image is a photomontage of a painting of her and the original portrait photograph. I wanted to emphasize her stunning eyes.
