Big Bird, Little Bird

Big Bird, Little Bird is a Collaborative Collection with my 6y.o. son.

It started quite unexpectedly. One day, I was in my studio with my son, feeling stuck and unmotivated as I worked on a canvas. He asked if he could add something, and I said, “why not?” He began painting imaginary creatures, and watching him paint so freely and playfully was incredibly inspiring. To join in his world, I began painting imaginary creatures with my left hand, letting go of control so the marks would feel more childlike and spontaneous. That moment became the beginning of our Collaboration Collection. Together we create pieces that are playful, layered, and full of energy.
