"We do not remember the days, we remember the moments"
Cesare Pavese
Cesare Pavese
Drawing light from the darkness - this is how I describe the art of scratchboard. It is a process of subtraction rather than one of addition and it allows the drama of light and dark to play off each other in fascinating ways. On the other hand painting on feathers adds a touch of magic to the work, a feeling of being a part of nature. These are my inspirations and sharing wildlife moments is my passion.
