"In Wonderland". Private commission for a double illustrated portrait. 2024.

"Nothing is impossible if you believe it is."

Do you remember the feeling of reading Alice in Wonderland for the first time? That sensation of everything being upside down, of uncertainty, and the anticipation that something completely unexpected could happen at any moment? I believe Lewis Carroll masterfully captures the unfiltered perspective of childhood—when you don’t yet know how things “should” be, and every sense is heightened, searching for its place in a vast, unfamiliar world.

I wanted to evoke that feeling in this double children's portrait because childhood is a magical time when anything is possible, and the only limits are those of our imagination.
