Our Lady of Granada, 2021, oil on canvas 81 x 60 cm
Thespian melancholy, 2021, oil on canvas 55 x 46 cm
Here we see an actor sitting alone in a Soho drinking club mid-morning of a weekday. The man is looking reflectively away to his right. The actor's dream of fame and professional fulfilment is one of the hardest to attain.

The picture represents unfulfilled ambition and aspiration, and the fear that they may never be achieved.
