02 — The technique

Colour drawn from the grape, not the tube

Red wine is the only medium. Worked in thin washes and left to oxidise, its tannins deepen from a translucent rosé to a near-black garnet. Building tone is a matter of patience — layer upon layer, each allowed to dry before the next — until a face emerges from the stain.

Painted on archival cotton paper and finished with a UV-protective seal, every commission is made to hold its colour for a lifetime.
