Fine Fruit February 2024

This year's series didn't quite carry the same weight. It felt like I was pushing against the creative current, rather than flowing with it. I found myself tangled in self-comparison, robbing myself of the joy in my process. It was a struggle—a departure from the intuitive creativity I cherish as an artist.

Reflecting back, it was a challenging month. But amidst the turbulence, there were moments of clarity and growth. Despite the struggle, there was beauty in the journey—a reminder that even in the toughest times, there's always something to learn and appreciate.

Below is a collection of my reference photos and painting studies I created during this years series.
