Tree of Life, drawn by hand
Art collaborations can be challenging and even stressful at times, but they also have a way of delivering unexpected and rewarding results.
I’m especially proud of this one: a hand-drawn interpretation of Klimt’s Tree of Life — with no tracing paper involved. Every line was drawn by hand, honoring the original while creating something completely unique.
Sometimes, the most meaningful work comes from embracing the process, not just the outcome.
Three quiet threadsWhat I’m working on
Making
Painting, printmaking and small ceramics. Botanicals, mudras, horizons, texture and slow observation.
Leading
A small, stubbornly hopeful art department. Schemes of work, sketchbook prompts, thoughtful routines and pastoral care.
Returning
Making space for attention, curiosity and unfinished ideas. Returning to materials and allowing the work to develop slowly.
