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.
