Art
I’ve been practising classical illustration on and off since I was in secondary school, with an emphasis on realism and portraiture. I’ve also had a few forays into pop art. My background in drawing was a contributing factor in landing me an apprenticeship in stone carving and which allowed me to move to Europe in March, 2024. The ability to draw is essential for stone carving and sculpting.
