My portraits begin with a single line, the curve of a cheek, the shadow of a gaze, and grow into studies of connection. Often drawn as half-faces or bodies, they reflect how we encounter one another in fragments: in fleeting glances, gestures, and silences. These are not likenesses of specific people, but emotional impressions, moments when something between us lingers.

Each face is a meeting point. Sometimes they align by chance; other times, they seem destined to sit side by side. Together, they form constellations of belonging, a visual record of how we carry parts of each other, even in places where language fails us.

These works are built on intuition, drawn from encounters in cities I’ve passed through, communities I’ve called home, and the invisible threads that connect us. In their simplicity, they hold complexity: identity, longing, and shared recognition across borders, both real and imagined.

Selected portraits are available through Cay Collective, or you are always welcome to get in touch with me directly. I also create custom portraits and commissions, and welcome new collaborations, creative ideas, and unexpected conversations.
