Sticks and Stones 91 × 76 cm • Acrylic & mixed media on raw canvas
“Sticks and Stones” is painted on raw canvas and echoes the freedom of childhood play, collecting sticks and stones, inventing stories, and building small worlds out of whatever nature offered. Overlapping forms in muted earth tones on one side and vibrant youthful colours on the other create a lively visual rhythm. Fine linear marks and textured details evoke the spontaneity of drawing with crayons and the simple joy of making without hesitation.
Soft edges blend into confident gestures, allowing each colour to breathe into the next. The exposed raw canvas brings warmth and tactility, rooting the work in memory and place.
“Sticks and Stones” captures the uncomplicated joy of exploring, imagining, and creating without rules — a visual reminder of how freely we once played.
