"The Girl and the Unicorn" series began during Christmas in 2022. Alone in a foreign country, I decided to paint a unicorn to keep me company during the lonely festive season. I have continued to create this series throughout 2023 and into the present, finding it a journey of self-discovery that has evolved with each painting. The girl and the unicorn set out on adventures, experiencing different places and emotions together. They are two characters, yet they also represent different aspects of ourselves.
