My pandemic soap series results from hours and hours of balancing water, brushes, tea, paints, paper etc. in funny little corners of our house during lock-down. The ritual and the locations have a new meaning in our lives. You’d think painting soap was easy but I’ve struggled with each one, which is of course what makes them interesting.
These almost miniature gouache paintings are painted onto khadi paper from a small sketchbook I dismantled for use.
