A Little Bit About The Artist

A Statement From The Artist

"Reverance" Paying Reverence and homage to my grandfather’s artistry, I used the airbrush passed down from him to me and created an image reminiscent of the art style he had. taking inspiration from gothic horrors and vampires I aimed to create a piece that demands a reaction from its audience the same as my grandfather's art did.

Do you like scary movies? And if so which ones?

Yes! My favourite "scary" movie franchise is "Alien", but I am a big fan of "The Blair Witch Project", "His House" and "Constantine"
