Studio Notes # 2
This week inside IKU Studio, I’m revealing a new art piece called “The Artist Awakening”—a bold celebration of purple and the creative energy we sometimes keep tucked away. I also went a little wild and painted the entire studio in two shades of purple and yellow… mid-renovation chaos and all.
It’s a reflection on creative flow, embracing messiness, and letting our spaces mirror our inner worlds.
✨ Plus, a fresh round of visual inspiration—from dreamy ceramics to surreal trees and spring-kissed animations.
The Artist’s Awakening
Stepping into a new chapter—bold, unfiltered, and alive with color. "The Artist’s Awakening" is a visual expression of transformation, embodying the exhilarating freedom that comes with embracing change, creativity, and self-expression.
With fluid strokes and rich, layered hues, this piece symbolizes the threshold between what was and what’s to come—a moment of transition where artistry, intuition, and exploration collide. Deep purples and vibrant undertones evoke a sense of depth and renewal, mirroring the energy of creative expansion.
Much like the ever-evolving journey of an artist, this work reflects the beauty of reinvention—the courage to step into the unknown and create from a place of authenticity and play.
