Folklore and faitytale series

I am inspired by the narratives that shape our lives: the stories, poetry and drama that we share and are entertained by. I am particularly drawn to to the stories which delve in to the subterranean, beneath the façade and behind the ordinary. In this collection I have used the simplicity of black ink to create images of popular fairytales and folklore. Taking the viewpoint of one or more character, I attempt to see the story from their unique perspectives, often attempting to subvert their traditional roles.
