During the first Zoom meeting, Paul and Mutia shared examples of their artwork. They shared an interest in brushstrokes and thought that Mutia\u2019s natured-inspired drawings could be combined with Paul\u2019s figurative work to make something altogether new. From this initial sharing of artworks the ideas of landscape, portrait, brushstrokes, hybrid, science\u00a0fiction, human\/plant and spontaneity were recorded.<\/span><\/h3>
