“and so they changed the world.”

Life has so many ups and downs. I swear, you get comfortable and then the bottom drops out.

It’s heavy.

In an attempt to lighten my life experience and those around me, I am beginning a new art series, “and so they changed the world,” where I paint a series of portraits of influential people.

I’m going to study them, write about them, paint them and share the outcome of my work here.

My goal is one painting per week for a year. I am also interested to see how my style changes with consistent painting, since I get bored easily.

I’m looking forward to researching about these influential people, I think it’ll be nice to re-live their impact and be inspired.
