  • Why did you create this work?
    Last year, moving between Portugal and Ireland, I was captivated by a pinkish hue that seemed to appear everywhere—the obvious sunsets/sunrises, the artificial glow of supermarket lights, and even the food I ate. These three illustrations were among the first I created at the time, inspired by what felt like the world’s new colours, and I cherish them for their spontaneity, lightness, and rawness.
  • How were your illustrations used?
    These images were used for my personal exploration and porfolio.
  • What materials and techniques did you use?
    Procreate on iPad Pro, mostly brushes that resemble colour pencils and dry pastels.
  • Was this project commissioned?
    Un-commissioned
