“Small Works” began as a way of honoring the brief moments that often slip past—the tiny flickers of color, memory, or emotion that feel like an excerpt pulled from a much larger story. In a season when everything felt big and consuming, these smaller pieces offered a place to breathe, to notice, to hold a single fragment without needing to resolve the whole. Each painting became its own quiet vignette, a concentrated glimpse into mood and meaning, revealing how much can live inside something contained. Through these works, I found myself leaning into subtlety and presence, letting the edges soften while the feeling stayed true. “Small Works” is a reminder that even the smallest chapters can hold an entire world.
