This was the year where I decided to compete with AI. My brain and a paintbrush and large panels without references. Could I make things magically look 3D? I wanted to recreate the sense of awe and wonder I feel, as with the threat of AI taking over the create arts, it is something I possess that it still doesn't yet have. I am human, I feel awe and wonder. 

I created a series of abstract lifeforms, as if contained in boxes in a scientific lab...it went from there.
