Maybe you need to paint something for the fun of it 🎨

Hi friends :) today's video is a fun vlog in the studio. I've been itching to get back into painting more, and I thought I'd document putting my idea to canvas. I've been loving vibrant, abstract expressionist still life paintings recently, so sit back and enjoy this paint session! 🎨 Maybe this can inspire you to create something just for the fun of it.
