This page presents a wider view of my practice beyond commissioned portraiture. Here the work becomes more expressive, experimental, and culturally direct.
Alongside private commissions, my paintings explore music, identity, performance, and collective energy. Some pieces are rooted in specific people or moments, others in atmosphere and emotion. These works are less about reassurance and more about voice.
Together, they reflect the full range of my studio practice — from quiet, intimate portraits to bold, high-contrast pieces driven by rhythm, culture, and intensity.
Works are grouped by series to reflect different themes and periods of focus.
Collections
London Rappers
A snapshot of contemporary London voices shaping modern culture. These portraits reflect the energy, realism, and diversity of the city through those living it.
Blinders
Paintings inspired by characters and themes associated with Peaky Blinders. The work focuses on power, morality, and inner conflict rather than direct likeness.
Hip Hop
Portrait-led work honouring hip hop as a cultural force, not just a genre. This series looks at voice, attitude, and the lived experience behind the sound.
Monotint
A focused body of work centred on tone, texture, and form. Using limited colour, these pieces highlight process, imperfection, and the physical act of mark-making.
Rave
An exploration of movement, freedom, and collective energy. This series captures moments of release and unity found in dance culture, stripped back to mood and rhythm.
Reggae Legends
A tribute to artists whose music carried resistance, spirituality, and social truth. The portraits aim to reflect both the public figure and the deeper message behind the music.
Africa
Work rooted in heritage, memory, and ancestral connection. These pieces explore identity beyond geography, drawing on symbolism, colour, and human presence rather than literal depiction.
Black Icons
Portraits of influential Black figures who have shaped culture, politics, and creative expression. This series centres dignity, legacy, and the power of representation.
Prayer
A quiet, reflective series exploring inner life, faith, and emotional weight. These works focus on stillness and presence rather than narrative, allowing space for contemplation and personal interpretation.
A curated archive spanning 25 years of studio practice, forming the foundation of current commissioned work. These paintings explore identity, power, memory, and social presence through a figurative language built on observation rather than spectacle. Each piece is rooted in lived experience and developed through sustained, hands-on process.
For collectors, this archive demonstrates consistency, depth, and technical control across decades. It shows how narrative, likeness, and atmosphere are constructed with intention—skills now applied directly to private and commissioned works.
These works are not available for purchase but serve as reference points for collectors commissioning original, bespoke paintings.
Collectors interested in commissioning a portrait or narrative piece can view current commission options here. Each commission draws on the same approach, discipline, and attention to character seen throughout this archive.
