Palette Keepsake No. 15 They Call It the Blues

This palette keepsake is an original, hand-painted floral study created as part of an ongoing exploration of color, process, and attention.

Florals have always felt like they should come easily to me ... and this one didn’t. It asked me to slow down, stay with it, and let the blue have its say without trying to fix or force it. What emerged is not a perfect answer, but an honest moment held in paint.

Each palette keepsake is painted intuitively and allowed to unfold in its own time. These pieces are not meant to be repeated. They hold the marks, pauses, and decisions made along the way.
