Much of my process is very internal which does make it a real challenge to capture. I think very visually and very quickly, In very short amount of times and especially when I don’t have access to a sketchbook i’m running through different ideas and thumbnails in my mind. It would be next to impossible to capture everything I go through before getting to my final concept.
I spent a while mulling over mundane things I could capture that would allow me to explore things I am interested in painting while also challenging myself. I always find it difficult to portray someone the same way multiple times in a row so I figured it would be a fun exercises and from there I decided a morning routine- but making it fantastical was a challenge until I settled on self portraiture and used my own odd experience of the morning and daily rituals to add an extraordinary and abstract elements
