Taken in May 2017 with Miss Tattoo, Austria, this piece is inspired by the Old Masters. As a young man, I was very fortunate to spend a lot of time in the National Gallery, London where I was amazed by the works of many of the Renaissance and Classical painters. I was especially drawn to the reds and yellows of the faded oil paints and these colour palettes are a big influence here.
