My idea for this piece was sparked from a photoshoot I did with the incredible photographer Lost Land Collections. We shot on a beautiful beach in Connecticut. We talked about what inspired us to do art and our art inspirations all while giggling and living in the moment.
Much of this project was inspired by classical artists. I wanted to do a study that merged their techniques and see if I could translate it

If you would like even more about this project, I have a digital magazine called PROJECT: Breakdown on my Patreon. I share my specific art inspirations, finding a balance between imagination and realism, and lots of the personal thoughts I had while creating this piece.
All editions of my magazine are downloadable!
