A bunch of inchies

An inchie is a small, low-pressure warm-up/sketch piece, a concept I discovered via artist Amy Maricle. In September 2022 I took part in her 10-day #inchiechallenge which had daily prompts.

It reignited my love for watercolour paper and when I was ready to make some new work this spring I cut up some 2″x2″ pieces to try out some ideas and streams of consciousness in miniature.

I’m in the process of scaling some up and also trying to channel the same fearlessness, spontaneity and flow when creating a piece from scratch.
