From 1998, I painted very successfully as a professional artist in a sort of Pop Art style. Until, in 2016, I turned the switch overnight and decided to continue in a realistic style. Something I had been planning for a very long time, but which I never got around to due to the high demand for my Pop Art work. Hence the resolute change of style. This painting is one of the first realistic paintings I made, and one I am very proud of to this day.
