A small painting of Annabel and Simran (my newest niece who was still in fetus form at the time.) I hadn’t oil painted all school year, and damn it felt good to pull out those paints, set aside a day, and see what emerged.
One of my favorite movies is Great Expectations because the main character stops drawing for years, and then suddenly everything is back, the desire to draw flooding him and taking over. It also helps that all of the drawings in the movie are actually made by Francisco Clemente and are legitimately awesome and beautiful. Like getting on a bike for the first time in years, it is nice to know that the muscle memory is still there just waiting for a brush in hand.
