As Agnes Martin said, "art is the concrete representation of our most subtle feelings". That's what I believe. I believe each shape, line and paint stroke carries weight and comes from the soul.
Drawing inspiration from the nuanced colors and movement in nature, I seek to distill color, contrast, and composition down to each essence, while maintaining a sense of spontaneity. Using acrylic and oil on canvas, with wide brushes and squeegees, I fabricate the illusion of texture and layering. My art seeks to create a delicate balance between freedom and discipline. If I could paint a daydream, what would it look like? Come along on this journey with me and explore the beauty of the world through my eyes. Connection and emotions are the most important part of life. I wish to connect each person to their deepest self and to the elements that surround us every day. |
