Remarks
In the last year or so that I lived in London I met and befriended handsome clothing designer and entrepreneur Gurdeep, who lived not far from me in Stockwell. He was rather modest about his good looks and at first slightly shy of nudity, but I persuaded him to model for this portrait drawing, which I did in black and white conté rather than my usual Venetian red because of the almost architectural shape of his stylish turban. His beard too is black, and his deep, soulful eyes seemed to demand to be drawn in black rather than another color." Binnie, 2022
