BOOM, original
24 × 24 inches (60.96 × 60.96 cm): Okay, I love this one too! It's messy, cool, happy, and we had so much fun in the studio while Clara was creating it.
We got these new acrylic drip markers, and Clara was having the time of her life! Depending on how hard she squeezed them, paint would go everywhere. And guess who had to clean it all? Me, of course! So while I was cleaning the floor, she was already making another mess. Ahahah!
The paint was much more liquid than what Clara is used to, so it was quite an adventure. But hey, she discovered a new tool, a new technique, and another way to create something beautiful!
And I think that's what BOOM is about. Sometimes we get so used to doing things in one way that we forget there might be a hundred other ways to get where we want to go. To make our dreams happen, to enjoy time with the people we love, and to find beauty even in the middle of a mess.
And while you're busy making everyone else happy, don't forget to be kind to yourself too. Even if you make a little mess along the way!
