Portfolio > Life at Rest

These works were all made throughout the year 2020 using various materials that I had been accruing prior to the pandemic. It was important for me to continue to find ways to work while my resources were limited. The paintings are evocative of still life painting and contain the same energy the objects on my bedside table have after emptying my pockets.
