The Daily Studies

​

A new artwork for £200 (including P&P) available most days. 


This project began during lockdown as a way to maintain a daily discipline and to connect with friends and collectors all over the world. In the beginning the idea was simple, 200 artworks, available every day for 200 consecutive days, with each work priced affordably at 200 Pounds. Initially planned for just 200 days, It grew and grew, to a point where I decided to keep going, and now I'm past 1300 with no intention of stopping anytime soon. I approach each study with a sense of adventure and playfulness. Many of the studies graduate into larger works and find their way into my daily studio practice. Others are simply a study drawn from nature. This daily conversation with nature, painting from life, placing myself in direct contact with wind, sun, the aroma of the seasons, the struggle and joy of it all; it feels like a kind of prayer or offering. Even when I don’t feel like it the result is a dispersion of a mental fog. The body comes alive. It’s like cleaning a window, removing layers of accumulated dirt. The discipline carries with it a momentum to keep attending to this method of connecting, to keep drawing from the well. 

 

You can find today’s study as well as all of the other available Daily Studies here.  Or head over to @the_daily_studies to view the full archive of over 1300 of these daily works.
