I start by finding an image that resonates with me. Something that makes me feel something or pulls me in for a reason I can’t always explain. I start by breaking the image down into a grid of tiny squares, sometimes as small as 4×4 millimeters. Then I paint each little pixel by hand, usually starting with black and slowly working through all the gradients until I get to white. It’s super detailed and takes forever, but I love the process and watching the image come to life with each shade.
