I love this way of framing it - it had never occurred to me before to connect it with annual/perennial. That's very reassuring somehow. I find your perennials really interesting - and honestly, those annuals are pretty fascinating too! I can see how they could feed/inform each other.

I absolutely agree that we all have our perennial themes, and I find it fascinating asking people about where theirs came from. I was recently surprised to unearth a hidden source of my own: I had no idea why rabbits would occasionally pop up in my paintings, but it turns out I was obsessed with rabbits at age 5 because my father had taken me to see Watership Down and it had quite an impact! I had somehow completely forgotten. At least consciously. Uncovering childhood drawings from that time that were all rabbits brought it back. So I guess for me, it might just be rabbits all the way down.
