Featured Artwork - ‘Fall Of Man’
“‘Fall of Man’ is an attempt to connect with my Dutch roots. I used modern photographic, lighting and editing techniques to try to emulate the gorgeous light used to lead the eye of the viewer by the Old Dutch Master Painters. It is an ongoing and continually evolving project I have been working on since 2018”
