Commission for a family friend. The colour palette was a challenge: purple on green. I think I pulled it off, though the medium did not quite allow me to do as vibrant a purple as I maybe could have, to further the challenge. With paint or paint pens, I think I could do better these days.

A human face made from 2,000 handmade stars, suspended in the Swan Foyer, by artist and designer Steven Follen.

An actual, physical drawing, pencil on paper. It almost feels... ancient? to draw like that. Connecting with past generations. Especially since I sat in a dimly lit room while drawing. So I couldn't even see the lines properly. But I enjoyed it. The sound and feel of graphite on mushed up wood fibers.

I'm going to paint with oils on top of this. Whenever I get to it.
