Baldnead Bhuddah

From the series of 50 portraits beautiful painted on Indian cotton rag. In this series Stephen fuses drawings and painting this blurring the line between contemporary portraiture. 

Each work tells a story a complex one at that, with meaning coded through multiple layers. In the first instance the figure maybe a reference to, or representation of, a specific invidual, real or imagined. In part a facet of himself, his feelings in the moment of painting.
