This is the piece that started it all. In December of 2021, I chanced upon a store selling art materials while grocery shopping and have been painting ever since.
This is based on a photo which I took in Jiufen, Taiwan where I wandered off the tourist packed pathways into a quiet alley where the residents lived and chanced upon this scene. I call it "The Red Mosquito" because the impression of the sound made by these mopeds is like a pesky mosquito.

The world was in lockdown and everything stood still. On the evening of March 27, 2020, a solitary, white-clad Pope Francis walked across the vast, rain-slicked and empty St. Peter’s Square, creating one of the most haunting visual images of our times. Beneath a darkening sky and a relentless drizzle, the ancient stones of the Vatican—usually teeming with thousands—echoed only with the tolling of a single bell. Standing alone in the deserted and wet square, the Pope delivered a prayer in which he described the world as a fragile boat tossed by an unexpected storm.
Painted this shortly after the passing of Pope Francis on 21st April, 2025.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
The rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

The Magic Bus. The broken & weather-beaten hull of Fairbanks Bus 142 stood defiantly along the Stampede Trail, a refuge against the unforgiving Alaskan wilderness for Christopher McCandless in April of 1992. Disillusioned, and driven by a desire for freedom away from the shackles of society, he shed off his identity and left everything behind. He took on the name Alexander Supertramp and in the words he used - walked into the wild.
His story, like the bus itself, is both inspiring and tragic—marked by courage, idealism, and the sobering reality of living completely untethered from the modern world.

Painting based on the Parable of The Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32). This painting was a tough one which I struggled to complete. All I knew is I wanted to paint a painting of the "Return of The Prodigal Son" from Luke's gospel. I started on the 9th of March 2023 laying down the pencil outline and then started filling its out with colours but I couldn't decide on how I wanted it to look. It remained uncompleted until the 9th of June 2025, a good two years and three months later although I'm glad its finally finished complete as I felt it was a story I wanted to share. Never did I think anyone would ever want to buy it.
You can imagine my surprise when a friend from Melbourne Australia offered to buy it to be gifted to a Church there. Never in my wildest dreams would I ever imagine a piece of mine depicting a parable from the gospel would find its home in a church. I thank my good friend Kerry for this amazing blessing.
