Another pair of animal portraits turned into an artistic tour-de-force by this artist. He is particularly in love with, and adept at painting, hares and foxes.

We enjoy the keenness of their wild instincts as well as the sensitive expressions and detailing that the artist likes to add to make each animal an individual.

He also wrote and illustrated articles for two national publications. Among his projects were a large painted vase for the Ralph Lauren store in Barcelona and various items of painted furniture.
