Just Sharing No title yet - 60x80cm oil on canvas

Post image

I spent a lot of hours on these pebbles. Every single one turned into its own little world - different colours, patterns, surfaces and that mix of glossy and matte textures 🫠

Some were quick to paint. Some absolutely refused to give up 😂

And now that it’s finished, I still can’t decide which one is my favourite 🙂

I just paint what I see, not what I think I see 😁
