Back to Painting Processes

Paintings can be amazing. However, I find it even more interesting in  how paintings develop. Art is not always about the final piece. I enjoy the process, because this is where I find myself growing because I am taking chances. Things don't always work and thats okay. My mistakes are usually my favorite parts of my paintings.

 Chase. 

 This shot and the following are a series about Chase's grandpa Boyd. He was really fun to take pictures with, I gave him ice cream and he was happy as a clam. Boyd is also an amazing painter and i wanted to capture shots of his studio.
