An escape to distant tropics; adjusted creative expectations and a few pressure-free sketches in a five-dollar notebook. Aerial views and imagined mermaids.

What was meant to be a simple decluttering evening turned into time travel. Between fashion school archives, vintage mood boards, and obsolete objects from the 2000s, I rediscover a guiding thread. Some things never change.

A last bit of sunshine and the atmosphere of a stay with no intention of being a guide. Sketches, pastel colours, long walks, and a very large seagull.

Some artworks stay with you over time. Here, I share the artists and paintings I keep returning to; works that inspire and motivate me.
