Ok, this one is sweet.
It’s surprisingly difficult to make a sweet painting that feels substantial and actually means something to me. 
Underneath this painting is an intricate dark green grid system with hidden doors and secret passageways but I kept getting lost. 
 This painting was an act of surrender and letting go.  About 3 years in the making/unmaking. I love the smushed colors, the clouds, the lightness.
This one feels like a day at the beach with a good friend.
