The painting started as a study in light and challenge, foil is one of the most unforgiving subjects you can paint. Every crinkle catches the light differently, every fold collapses into its own shadow, and the surface never stops moving even when it's still. It demanded complete attention. And somewhere between the first brushstroke and the last highlight, it became something more than a technical exercise. There's an honesty to a crumpled crisp bag. It's been enjoyed, lived in, squeezed for the last broken chip at the bottom. It doesn't pretend to be anything other than exactly what it is. That felt worth painting.
