In November of 2018, I started drawing in a blank sketch book after a lengthy hiatus. It was during one of many trips to Ireland that I became inspired to draw again -inspired not so much by what I saw, but by what I felt. I happened on some inexpensive Muji gel pens and began drawing as often as possible in this book. This practice led to my current series of oil paintings as well as other works on paper. I never intended to display any of the drawings in the book, but as it’s become so foundational to what I’m doing in my art, I thought these pages would stand well next to my other work.
These pages are numbered in the order they appear in the book.
