The work favors bold, flat fields of color and high-contrast graphic shapes that translate archival portraits into contemporary, visual statements.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eMy practice examines the mechanics of celebrity and the visual language that sustains it. I present portraits of mid‑century cultural figures to explore how repetition, color, and scale shape collective memory. Influenced by Pop art and mid‑century advertising, the series conveys how an image’s surface—its smile, hairstyle, wardrobe—becomes cultural shorthand, simultaneously familiar and manufactured.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eTechnically, I reduce photographs into simplified planes of light and shadow, then rebuild them through successive screen layers. Intentional misregistration, halftone texture, and hand interventions interrupt mechanical reproduction, so each piece reveals both the photograph’s authority and the maker’s touch. Scale and cropping are used to amplify particular expressions and to alter the viewer’s sense of intimacy with the subject.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eMy style and execution, have been influenced by Andy Warhol, having worked with him on his American Myth series launch.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eAcross the corpus, recurring motifs—iconic profiles, stylized smiles, retro palettes—reveal how nostalgia functions visually. The work neither preserves myth nor demolishes it; it exposes the processes by which public images are produced, circulated, and remembered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"icon-series-mick-jagger","title":"Icon Series  Mick Jagger","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDigital ink on high end paper.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e33x34x1\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI work in silkscreen and mixed media painting, combining photo resources with layered screen prints, acrylic hand applied textures.
