In Reverse

Looking at an expansive mountain landscape, you'll notice the furthest away are the darkest and most stark. Yet, reflecting that reality doesn't quite work in painting.

Instead, the darkest colours are saved for the ones nearest to the 'eye', with the far-offs left to fade into a smidgen of grey. And the brain understands when it sees this. Odd and fascinating, isn't it?

I'd forgotten how cathartic it can be cutting my own hair. And so addictive too haha. Between that and trawling sites to find random gems to watch, feels like I'm back to my early teens. Strangely fun.
