#48: Preparing for Saltaire: Three New Paintings in Progress
I’m preparing three paintings for the Saltaire Gallery Open Call — including my reinterpretation of Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam. In this post, I share how these works bring together weeks of moiré experiments and why Saltaire feels like the right place to present this stage of my journey.
#43: When the Studio Feels Like a Laboratory
