In this series, I’ve created oil paintings on canvas that depict a city that is made up of big, grey, blocky shapes, and sometimes, you’ll find pale, lonely, and disconnected people in it. The city stands in full contrast to the vibrant, detailed, and organic natural world beyond its borders, with its deep blue skies.
My creative process begins with me walking around in the real world, sketching, and taking quick notes. Then, I take these observations back to my studio, away from the city’s hustle and bustle. This distance in both space and time allows me to blend the lifeless urban scenes with my imagination, which is influenced by my state of mind and the state of society around me.
