Am I 1001
A solitary masked figure bends forward against a deep burgundy ground, the body modeled in crimson, pink, and pale highlights. Created digitally on paper, the image uses smooth tonal transitions and sharp reflective accents on the hood, harness, and chain to emphasize contour and tension. The close composition and restricted palette give the work a charged, theatrical presence.

Paul & John is a studio project exploring male identity through the digital gaze, so every work is a digital illustration drawn entirely by hand, and the references come straight from today's dating culture: the selfie, the mirror shot, the dick pic. The works reflect male sexuality, and with it the way men see themselves and choose to present themselves. They range from show-off moments in front of the camera to the deepest cellars of desire. The technique was born on a basic tablet and grew into a complete visual language: the quick hand movements of pencil work, combined with the elastic behaviour of acrylic paint, which gives the drawings the feel of exposed flesh. It's a personal project, and it's a couple's project. It lets us share very intimate moments with the world, and move between the introverted and the extroverted.
