you can find inspiration in anything if you look at it in the right way, marks and stretch in the walls can be used to discover a new texture, or you can experiment with stones and everyday objects. it just a matter of finding something that intrigues you visually and figuring out how you can explore these everyday findings and incorporate them into your way of working
