Grand Bastion - Scott Uminga
Using some of my favourite brushes and shapes from past years. Iβve been wanting to just make pieces for pleasure for awhile now.
Hello to all my Fans, Followers, Fellow Artists, Friends and Family.
I felt like the year went by so quickly. There were way more ups than downs, and overall I felt there was a rekindling with many past friends. Which made me feel more grounded and loved. I felt I shouldβve taken more candid pictures to document those moments. In truth I gained a fear of asking for consent and not taking any pictures.(When in past, I would take many, during my highschool and college years). But I would like to think itβs just for me. To remind and reflect on those moments. To be inspired by those interactions, and create art and narratives for sentimental stories. Maybe that would be an ok reason to just do it? Perhaps I should carry a point and shoot again.
I really want to draw/sketch more from life and from the depths of my imagination this year, so I have a HUION NOTE and maybe Iβll post on my stories/reels the pages I make. I have to get over that pigeon hole feeling and just do it. So please send kind words whenever you have an urge. I may not be able to answer, but deep down I appreciate the encouragement.
I want to thank everyone whoβs viewed my work and felt inspiration from my pieces. From the way the lines move to the colours picked. Or from my early works to the most obscure. And a big thankyou to all the people whoβve commissioned me this year and in the past. For having trust in my artistry and creative decisions.
2025 feels like itβs a milestone, someway somehow that I cannot pinpoint. So I hope itβs all for the best!! Remember to go at your own pace, and like my partner reminds me. To hydrate, rest and itβs ok to say βNoβ. Also, reach out to those important to you and the ones who made and make life exciting.
<3Scott.
