Beauty and positivity are inseparable. If a work does not uplift, it cannot truly achieve beauty. My work is built on accurate, multi-layered traditions of the Old Masters to ensure every portrait has lasting depth and presence. I begin with precise composition and line quality, followed by a tonal underpainting and a series of intermediary glazes to establish light and atmosphere.

Using the abozzo to map the subject’s spirit, I finish with a refined overpainting that captures the final character and life of the piece.
