The initial days of Good Grief Studio focused on developing fabrication standards from which the whole studio would be based. By instilling these fundamentals into my process, I developed the ability to solve problems more intuitively. One of the first projects to come from this period of learning was the creation of round canvas stretchers using a router and Milescraft CircleGuideKit. This particular painting is on one of those initial, hand-crafted supports, and is a piece of the studios history.

As focus shifts to painting in 2025, this exploratory aesthetic features five poppies falling slowly in tandem with two abstract shapes knows as Positive Gestures, one of which is sculptural in form and the 73rd hand-stretched shaped-canvas I have produced to date.
