The latest lockdown has been hard for all of us and finding things to help cope with it all is important. I’ve been enjoying getting the paints out, its certainly great to reconnect with something you’ve enjoyed in the past. So I’m thankful to have the headspace and time to have some fun making a mess and away from the Mac and photoshop.
The thought of getting a big canvas and pinning it on the wall and letting things happen would have put the fear of god in me a few years back, I love it and appreciate it now more than ever, total escapism.
I have plans to continue doing these bigger works and explore with texture and colour and expressive mark making it feels right ! So some good things have come from this latest lockdown. Heres to having a pint in the Local soon!
