His style has evolved over the years but his work is always captivating. In his newer paintings, he hints at a much darker tone, both in the way he paints and the subject matter, and they allow for multiple narratives to enter into play. Here the past and present collide to create a sense of uneasiness and anxiety. A comment of our time maybe? Nevertheless, I enjoy the ambiguity.
