Past & Present Work
Where this started, and where it is now
None of the seven paintings in Chaos of Reality showed up finished. Every one of them started as a shaky sketchbook line or a small test canvas, made on a day when a full-size piece wasn't physically possible yet. I'm showing you both ends on purpose - the studies and the finished work - because the distance between them is the whole point.

WHAT'S NEXT
The work doesn't stop here
I'm already sketching the next series. If you want to see the studies before anyone else does — the same messy, in-progress work you saw above — that's exactly what the newsletter is for.
