I’ve been wanting to incorporate figures into my work in a way that feels natural and integrated with the landscape, without making them look overly stylized or cartoonish. I want the figure to blend seamlessly with the environment, focusing less on strict anatomical accuracy and more on capturing the essence of the form. Think more Van Gogh than Renoir.
