Steve in his conservatory, is part of the Indoor Collection; whereby I began to do portraits of people in their homes. The people featured were all family, this is my boyfriend’s dad. I wanted to capture people in their homes with all their belongings around them. You can see Steve’s plants and tropical fish in the image- these are both important in his life, tending to his plants ad caring for his fish. You can see he is wearing his slippers for inside and has his outdoor garden shoes next to the conservatory door. My boyfriend Matt now does the same thing- I can see his garden shoes next to our back door. This piece is part of my own collection.
