Charbonneau//Resource Management

**Charbonneau and Resource Management are sold together, a mother-daughter duo.**

CHARBONNEAU:
This piece came together while I was on a phone interview for a job that completely changed my world. I have been planting trees in parts of Canada very few people will every be able to see, hours away from civilization in regions that rarely get dark in the summer. Tree planting has become my break from art, and I return to painting again in September recharged, refreshed and packed to the brim with new inspiration.
This piece was the beginning of a huge shift in my yearly routine. It all started in April of 2018 with a phone call from a man named Charbonneau.

RESOURCE MANAGEMENT:
The paint on this canvas is the leftover paint from "Charbonneau." The background of this piece also contains brainstorms for how I wanted Charbonneau to turn out. Consider this piece the behind the scenes for another piece. At this time I seldom kept rough drafts/brainstorms for my pieces, something I nowadays do quite regularly. It is a collector's edition of sorts, the director's commentary. The "bonus feature" many DVD's have.

Acrylic/Papier Mâché on cotton canvas.
