Girl on Fire

I started this painting yesterday as something completely different when Rene saw it half way through and said "It looks like Katniss."

And so it became my tribute to Hunger Games. 

The books were one of the best stories I've read in a long time. And they have a lot of significance for me. you can read more about our thoughts on them here




Painting is really where my heart is and has been for a long time. As long as I can remember. But it's something that I don't do nearly often enough for how much I love it. That's something I know I need to change and that I hope will change this year. So sharing more here as an artist will be part of it... You can keep me accountable to my resolutions.
