[it was an occasional hobby before, but he's able to devote a little more time to it these days - and while it would be good to stretch himself (and he tries), botanical studies are good to fall back on, as well as helpful for work. Good for his hands as well; there was a dip in the quality of his painting after the kidnapping, while he was healing, while his hands were clumsy. But he has tried not to be deterred.
He is a little shy of showing, never mind showing off, though he does offer Chuuya a look at the page - he has one of the plants sketched, but the opposite page he'd left for notes has rather more colour swatches on it than blank space for writing]
I can't seem to mix these colours. Perhaps they're too vivid for my paints?
