I’m doing a thing. I call it painting playtime. A loosening up. I call it that to remind myself it doesn’t have to be good work, or a saleable piece at the end. Just put something on paper or card or anything. Make marks. Expand my mind and hands to what flows.

Just in the garden, playing around with a few ideas.
It's amazing how a few simple lines can spark a new direction. No plan, no pressure—just enjoying the creative process and seeing where it leads.
