This still life with a pumpkin began as an experiment in mixed media during an art course. I layered acrylic paint, collage, and crayons to create a playful composition. I enjoyed exploring bold shapes and a looser, more expressive approach, letting the process guide the piece to completion.

I used acrylic paints, inks and collage. I make my own collage papers by painting on lightweight sheets with layers of professional grade colour. After cutting or tearing these papers, I glue them onto good-quality paper using archival glue.
