‘Mornings’ was painted in the early months of becoming a dad. With less time to paint and more time to worry, her temperature is 37.9, what does that mean? I don’t know?! desperately trying to find my footing, two people doing their best to care for each other and a new little heartbeat.

A study of mornings, my favourite time of day no matter how rough the night was, full of mess, anxiety, love and warmth.
