Here’s Looking At You God II
Here’s Looking At You God II August 2015 | acrylic ink on paper | dimensions: 40 x 30.5 cm (16 x 12″) A new series Here’s Looking At You God, following on from the HUMAN GOD series.

BLOO MOON
BLOO MOON August 2015 | acrylic on stretch canvas | dimensions: 51 x 51 cm Graffiti-style obliteration over a scratch matrix of windows.
