Narratives in Art.
Narratives in Art is a living archive of my practice, a space to document, process, and think out loud. Posts might follow a new work, a small observation, an exhibition, or a question I can't yet answer. There is no fixed agenda here, only an ongoing record of how the work develops, where it leads, and what it is slowly becoming.
Stipple Brush.
Inspired by feedback from a group critique, I’ve introduced stippling brushes into my process, creating soft, shadowy textures that enhance the dreamlike quality of the piece. The unexpected comparison of my work to a cathedral has deepened my perspective on the painting, as I continue refining this exciting exploration of scale, texture, and memory.
First Group Critique.
Participating in my first group critique session was both nerve-wracking and exhilarating as I shared my large-scale experimental piece for the first time. The feedback I received, from technical tips like using a stipple brush to deeper inspirations such as exploring Sohrab Sepehri’s work and Chinese Freehand brush techniques, left me with an unexpected burst of motivation. This experience marked a pivotal moment, moving me from guarded creation to confident exploration, and showed me that sharing my art amplifies its meaning rather than diminishes it.
