Over het boek
Roughly 200 years ago, artists were painting with the pulverized remains of Egyptian mummies. This color was available in art shops until the mid-20th-century when it disappeared due to laws and scarcity of mummies to make paint from.
The unique opportunity has presented itself for this color to be adequately documented. I reproduce this historical color using Egyptian mummy fragments from the revered Billy Jamieson collection. The fragments that I have obtained are said to have once been housed with Ramses I in the Niagara Falls History Museum, which Jamieson purchased in 1999. The result is the comprehensive never before seen color profile for this fabled color.

'In my work I focus on themes of Science and Mythology. I use a blend of Surrealism and Abstraction to achieve these themes. I am heavily interested in the history of pigments and manufacture my own oil paint, which I use to create my art. I am primarily focused on selling print reproductions of existing paintings I have made as well as taking commissions. Please contact me if you would like to commission a painting from me.
