New Work: Melissa Febos for The Observer Magazine

I’m excited to share a recent portrait commission for The Observer Magazine—a feature on the brilliant Melissa Febos, whose new book The Dry Season: A Memoir of Pleasure in a Year Without Sex explores celibacy, desire, and personal growth with the honesty and depth she’s so well known for.

It was a real pleasure to collaborate on this piece and create an image that would sit alongside such a thoughtful and revealing conversation. The portrait ran in print on 6th July and was published online on 3rd July.

Huge thanks to Alex at The Observer for the commission, and to Melissa for being such a generous and inspiring subject.
