A man in a tweed suit and white collar, head turned in three-quarter profile. A pale veil sweeps up from the brow, covers his eyes and streams off to the upper left. Ear, lips and chin are finely grained, in grey and sand.
Tweed, starched collar, a head held for the camera: the formal sitter is a category, and a name for him (clerk, official, notary) is ready before the second glance. The name needs eyes to attach to. The veil removes them, and it lifts from the skull with no seam, so it is no cloth laid on. Ear and mouth stay exact. Nothing says who he is.
The veil is soft enough to pass for ornament. It stands where the eyes should be, and that duty keeps it from being a flourish. Remove it and a clerk remains. Leave it, and a question stays in the house.

He trained in applied arts and fine arts, including a two-year apprenticeship in decorative painting (wood and marble finishes, large-scale scenic designs, and trompe l'œil). An IT entrepreneur in the 2000s, he returned to artistic and manual practice, working today at the intersection of traditional media and generative AI.
