One Year in Seoul
A year in Seoul represents my most prolific year of creation as well as the hardest year of my life. It is a collection of paintings created as a year abroad was cut short by a cancer diagnosis and the subsequent year of frantic creation that followed. Each painting a part of who I was at the time and what shaped me into who I am now. All hand drawn and painted illustrations on wooden boards. These pieces have been in my private collection ever since, too precious to part with. With the advent of the NFT space, I finally feel it is time to share them with the world. Once the collection is complete and listings finish. One collector of each 5/5 edition will be dropped an archival print of their piece. All remaining pieces will be burned at that time.
NTMRW is my Genesis Collection on Foundation. I will be releasing exclusively 1 / 1 pieces here. This work is from a private collection from my most prolific year of creation as well as the hardest year of my life. It is a collection of paintings created as a year abroad was cut short by a cancer diagnosis. and the subsequent year of frantic creation that followed as I completed my treatment. Each painting in this collection was created using exclusively traditional painting methods.
