I’ve been inspired by the last season of TV series ‘Casa De Papel’ to paint a portrait of Nairobi, one of the main characters. She’s a fierce and defiant woman played by Spanish actress Alba Flores.

LIKE OWNER, LIKE PET
Due to the ongoing outbreak of Coronavirus Covid-19, my times in the street will be limited over the next few weeks. But before London goes on lockdown, I painted this fun piece to refresh the Dali portrait done at LukeJacob. This new painting depicts Dali looking at his pet, an ocelot named Babou. Babou’s […]
GOOD VIBES
It took me about 3 to 4 days despite the rainy weather to paint this large-scale mural on the side of U7 Lounge in Haggerston, London, UK. I wanted to create an artwork that is vibrant, colourful and celebrates jazz music (the venue host jazz events and there is a music school a few […]

SISTERS
I met the two little twin sisters Success and Surprise through FutureHackney, a collective of photographers capturing portraits of East Londoners. I took photos of them holding each other and painted a mural at the By The Bridge Cafe in Hoxton. I love the tenderness and the hope in their eyes. It’s been complicated times for Londoners […]
