My four paintings depict human emotions and our collective consciousness through striking colours and soulful eyes. Each character experiences life in their own unique dimension with a different story to tell.

The human gaze is oftentimes powerful; looks can kill, looks can heal. 

In the first illustration, a  levitating elven creature hides a mysterious look behind a shadowed hood. Magic from seeps from their hands. They are one who unlocked bountiful knowledge from years of meditation in the dark.

In the second, a rainbow boy expresses pain as an older hand rests on his shoulder. Black splotches of external conflict have tainted his youth. He stares confrontationally with eyes that will not forget.
