Manus McGrogan

I'm Manus McGrogan, a highly experienced, prize winning, freelance portrait artist. I'm also a writer and teacher, originally from Belfast, now living in Brighton & Hove. My artwork is centred on the human face and figure in varying contexts, and draws on strong technique in line, tone and colour. The styles in my work are broadly realistic (portraiture, life drawing), poster-style (icons and album art), and I love to dabble in surrealist and science fiction imagery. I use a number of media, including graphite pencil, coloured pencils, pastel pencils, pastels, pens, watercolour and acrylic paints.
