From the artist:

I think the larger size provides the art with more presence and honesty. […] These drawings owe a heavy debt to Egon Schiele and Gustav Klimt, as well as Japanese Shunga prints. I hope my drawings extol my love of the female form, just as theirs did.

Certain nuances and details are much more visible in these larger formats. The drawings presented here have not been retouched after being scanned. So you can see their qualities and … their faults, whatever they may be.

I firmly believe that art must deliver a message to its viewer. The relationship between the image and the viewer is paramount. Well, I’ll stop here, because there’s no need for me to write you any testimonial or plea. I hope you enjoy your visit to my world!

I had a lot of fun drawing all this, and I hope you will too, as you flip through the pages!
