I just started to study his works and philosophy, I am in awe.

Hidden portrait

Portrait of H. pregnantink and watercolor on paper.

I believe H. was patient enough during the process of me, painting her (this is only ONE result of many studies), as she wanted to record this te of her pregnancy in another way than taking a picture.

This is the 3rd time in my entire career that I paint a pregnant woman. How lucky am I?
