A typical December Saturday in Kvarnbyn. It’s cold, gloomy and damp outside, however, entering The Florence Academy of Art / Sweden there is flurry of activity.

@kendrictonn

The last two years, though, I’ve been dabbling in other things. During the COVID lockdowns, I discovered some mid-century Japanese printmakers, and started doing watercolors in a style inspired by them.

@kendrictonn

The still-life/model alternating rhythm really has continued for me ever since I finished at the FAA, in fact. I’m not saying I run my life to a perfect school schedule, but generally I’ll have a model project and a still-life or two going at any given time.

I’m still painting in oils, working from life, doing still-lifes and figure paintings and the occasional portrait commission. The school taught pretty much exactly what I wanted to do, and I’ve kept on doing similar things.
