The Portfolio
Moving beyond the flat surface — three sculptural works exploring the body, movement, and constraint. Each piece in a different material, each asking a different question about form and feeling.
The body as subject — from loose life studies to careful anatomical observation. Working in ink and graphite to understand form, weight, and presence.
Curiosity about what's beneath the surface — skull studies from multiple angles, a hawk mid-dive in ballpoint, and the life-death duality of the rabbit series on tea-stained paper.
An ongoing series in the humblest tool there is — the ballpoint pen. No erasing, no second chances: portraits, animals, and moments built line over patient line.
Where drawing becomes storytelling — an inked bande dessinée page, two shopkeepers asleep in the afternoon sun, and machines that never existed: a shark rebuilt as a submarine, a flying boat resting on calm water.
A recurring subject — three horse portraits, each approached differently. The challenge of capturing presence and weight in pastel; the animal as a study in stillness and power.
Conceptual works exploring femininity, constraint, and cultural representation. The Japanese mixed-media canvas layers traditions and aesthetics; the red shibari painting distills the body to its most graphic form.
Portraits of places and companions — commissioned house portraits in gouache, wooden houses painted on every face, Swiss villages miniaturized onto river stones, and a menagerie of Christmas stones. Each one made for someone, about somewhere or something they love.
The practice of close looking — crushed snack bags rendered wrinkle by wrinkle, a hyper-detailed strawberry, a blossoming branch, a humble onion drawn from life, a monumental eye with the Alps reflected in its iris, a tarot card redrawn by hand, and the Palais de Justice in obsessive ink detail.
Every digital work begins with a drawing. These pieces show the full journey — from initial sketch to finished screen — because the hand is always present behind the pixel.
About the process
Each digital illustration begins as a pencil sketch on paper. The drawing is scanned and developed digitally — building light, colour, and atmosphere layer by layer.

Further Works
A photography series exploring the female figure in a natural forest setting. Natural light, unposed stillness, and the body as part of the landscape.
