Studio and technical tools.
Bedroom and medical devices.
Garden sculptures and emotional closure.

Object-reading prompts

What does this object say about pain or adaptation?
Is this item practical, symbolic, or both?
How does color shape mood in this room?

Reflective pause card

Stop	Question
Kitchen	How does craft become identity?
Studio	Where do discipline and spontaneity meet?

"I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality." Keep that line in mind while moving through the house.
