Happy new year 🥂!! This painting was the painting that kind of made me decide to become an artist. I arrived from work one day (I was working as an architect) and I needed a break. I decided to paint a still life because I enjoyed it so much at a painting class I took in school. I knew it would be cheesy but I decided it would be fine because no one would ever see it. I looked around the apartment in search of something interesting to paint and I saw a wrapped bottle that someone brought to our housewarming party. I wanted it and I enjoyed it so much, it was the best feeling! When it was done I thought it wasn’t so bad and if it was cheesy, that was actually ok for me. I decided I wanted to do more, I unwrapped the bottle and use the paper to wrap some shoes. And I haven’t stopped wrapping ever since! This was two years ago, so much has happened since!
