Stylised Figurative paintings of todays’
modern people and how their traditional cultures relate to their modern society. Combining traditional elements with aspects of todays’ modern fashion styles and attitudes.

A fine painting of this Moroccan beauty. The pose and colours, are just right. And a good, and suitably Arabic background. A sharper photo would do it justice.
Thanks for the welcome comment, Charleen.

True about the photo - as the colours are much brighter then this, and the natural lighting was muted by dark crainy cloud skies. Thankyou for your comment! ;-)

I don't pretend to understand fashion, and sadly, not enough knowledge of many cultures, but I do appreciate beauty. This is a beauty! The style is simple, but adding in the cultural aspects makes it so intriguing. For instance, the window releif in the background.... it really lends itself nicely for the subject and gives us some flavor of the provenance which makes up Morracan style. To you I wish the best for your March show honey. You're going to ROCK IT!

A unique & beautiful approach to your subject. Incidentally there is now a photograph of me with my profile statement, being my usual inscrutable self. Posed photographs are very rare, because I don't like them & I would never smile for them either.

Hallo Geoffrey! Great you put a photo. For me, I appreciate your comments, and to others, you are very constructive- so a face to your words is very cool! - plus I think it removes the mystery and adds intrigue to your works! Thankyou! ;-)
