I’m working on an art book of digital portraits I’ve worked on, mostly since Covid. While I have a ton of paintings, I don’t own the rights or permissions for a majority so I’m starting at the beginning of the process and have been challenging myself to create 20ish paintings to fill out the book. So far I’ve completed 8 paintings, so only 12 more to go. This actually started in January, so 8 isn’t bad, but momentum has halted considerably mostly due to the lack of inertia.
The book will include the final piece and 4 works in progress, as well as some musings about the process, how I think about art, and what matters the most to me.
This is the current draft of the book cover but I’m already looking to pivot a bit into a different design. Probably something more tongue in cheek.
