These gouache paintings are rooted in direct observation—some painted en plein air, others from the quiet of home.
The images based on interiors and scenes framed through windows began during the pandemic lockdown, when looking closely at the spaces and views around me became a daily practice. Whether outdoors or indoors, each painting holds the immediacy of the moment and the intimacy of sustained attention.
