Big Faces

I have been Inspired by Gottfried Lindauer, Chuck Close, C.F. Goldie, Platon and other artists who focus on the face, taking their concepts further by building my own camera & techniques to increase the detail captured allowing for larger than life printing with no loss of detail.

If my boosted campaign is a success It will will feature;
~ 10 large 35x44” (890mm x 1118mm) Head Shots with incredible detail
~ Previously unseen 8x10" (203 x 245mm) Polaroids
~ 8x10" (203 x 245mm) Darkroom Prints
~ A selection of portraits taken at parties over the years.

For many years I have been driven to capture a typology of human faces, beginning with 35mm, then 8x10" instant and traditional film, and most recently digital composites achieved by mounting a Nikon D800 onto the back of a Toyo 45C large format film camera.

My vision is 400 of these large portraits, but I thought it was time for a modest selection of images to be seen in their full beauty, which simply isn't possible online.

None of these works are for sale, but I will have an operational studio present during the whole exhibition where portraits can be commissioned.
