💌 To my Beloved 💌
December 2024- This painting I worked on as a concept for my Flowers in the Field story, before I even started to work on the art that eventually became the first 2 pages of the graphic novel. I depict my character Antoine of Iris gazing at a photo of his girlfriend from back home Eloise, inscribed ‘To my Beloved’. In this terrible place, the muddy and cold trenches, reminders of a better time, a peaceful time only seem to fill Antoine with sorrow. If only he could be with Eloise now in a field of flowers lined with trees blooming in spring, far from this all consuming horror.
