During this time of uncertainty, stress, pressure, tension, and anxiety I needed something that would help to settle me and give me some grounding.  I decided to remove the pressure of having to make a masterpiece and instead create a fun technique challenge.  This Covid series explores studies of nature with an emphasis on color theory, composition, contrast, and material application.  Like many artists, I was unable to work in my campus studio during Covid so being able to come back this past semester I hit the ground running with this small series.  It started as something small to help keep my sanity and instead flourished into a deeper exploration.
